In the year 2000, I began filming cities around the world in a very intimate and exploratory way. The series Transitio started in 2001 with the exhibition Duration: 1 Hour and 3 Minutes — Location: 17.3 Miles at Paul Rodgers Gallery in New York City, that coincided with the Guggenheim Museum’s exhibition Brazil Body and Soul. I filmed New York's Broadway from the perspective of a taxi, capturing street scenes from the Bronx to Wall Street, in one shot, an unedited diagonal passage through the city. In 2002, the same video-sculpture was presented in Mexico City actualizing the first exchange between two cities, and then again showcased in 2003 in Tornio, Finland. This single shot stream depends on my full engagement—things line up, they flow. I have to be completely present in the moment: it is a search for an instant in the movement; it is accumulation; it is absorption of information.
