walking kailash

A project created by Katarina Weslien

"Walking Kailash" is an invitational project by Katarina Weslien that was walked by 19 artists in different locations between 2016-2018, including Athens, Varanasi, Chicago, Santa Fe, New York City and Rome.

The work developed in response to a conversation and studio visit between Weslien and Julie Poitras Santos in August 2016. You can read about that dialogue, in Collecting Water, published in The Chart arts journal.
