Description of action My starting point is in front of a supermarkt in the quarter San Augustin of the city La Habanna. Im my hands I have a bucket full with bright blue colour and a small brush. On my back is fixed a sign with the letters “Sigueme Sigueme” (follow me, follow me).

I outline the contours of my shoes with the blue colour and make a step. Each Step I take from now will be marked with the blue colour, so that while moving I am leaving my tracks and the peoples might follow my way. I walk like this over three and half hours and connect selected points of the quarter.

“… After the school was over the children run on the streets and saw the marks on the ground and follow them, until they have reached BBB Johannes Deimling. A line of over 22 children followed the artist over a half Kilometer through the quarter. With every stepp they supported Deimlings action with a “Hepp!” …”
