Walking, Silence (2013-2014), Greg Hindy
"The 8,700 mile walk from New Hampshire to California yielded 1,800 large-format film photographs "
One year ago today, I had the pleasure to interview Greg Hindy who was getting ready to walk across the country. His story and art form is unique.
He has gained quit a following , sort of like a modern day Forest Gump.
you can see how he progressed during his journey on his Facebook page here
MAI :
"On July 9th, 2013, Greg Hindy took a vow of silence and began a one-year performance, crossing America by foot. He carried with him a notebook to communicate with other people and a film camera to document his journey. The 8,700 mile walk from New Hampshire to California yielded 1,800 large-format film photographs currently stored in a safety deposit box at a bank in his hometown. Greg will be developing the black and white photographs himself. Greg’s journey could only be traced by where he swiped his debit card. With his vow of silence, he also chose not to write, read, or interact with television or social media.
