This is quite a special patch. Once in a while I get personal emails from people who tell me, that family member was liking the idea behind the project. And that they have passed, but got a moment of joy from it.
I received a letter from Eva B. from Potsdam near Berlin. Her husband Jürgen was a big fan of Lego and for this reason Eva invited me to their house to donate a part of her late husbands collection. The only thing she wanted in return, was that I install a patch dedicated to him. We talked about where could be a fitting spot, and I told her that I was next headed to the basque countryside for a residency for landart, in Uhart-Mixe. Eva told me, that this would be a great spot, since her husband had always dreamed of undertaking the spiritual footwalk to Santiago de Compostela in Spain. The main north-european ways cross here upon their ascend to the pyrenees.
So we chose this spot, precisely for this. I included his initials and a miniature copy of their house in Potsdam. Rest in peace Jürgen, may your family get some joy from this patch in your honor!
This was done in the frame of a residency in Uhart-Mixe, Basque Country, France with the support of the Basque Country Urban Community.
