​Buy Me a Car

This is a project based on conversations I started in 2011. I asked individuals to contribute one Ethiopian Birr, or the equivalent, towards the purchase of a 300,000 Birr car.  This led to a series of conversations with strangers, on varied subjects, but often revolved around the current political situation in Ethiopia. When the project is completed, the collectively purchased car will have all 300,000 contributors’ names written as body paint.
