"The Hair Collection"
Would
you like to give me a hair from your head?
I am currently working on an art project where I collect hair.
I want one hair only from each person and anyone who wishes
to may contribute to the project. It is important that those who give
do so in their own free will. I also want them to personally pull out
the hair they wish to give me. The hairs will be displayed in one or more
exhibitions.
In addition I wish to do performances and produce books in
connection with this project. How the final result will be is not yet
settled. I will take good care of the collected hairs. In case you wish
to be anonymous and give a hair, that’s ok. But if you wish to give
away a hair, and at the same time submit some personal information, that’s
even better.
Name:
Year of birth:
Place of birth, country:
Date of hair removal:
Place, country while hair was removed:
E-mail:
If you wish to donate a hair to this project
I would appreciate it very much.
If in addition you would like to pass
this message along to your local and distant friends that would be a great
help, too. Obviously they may let the message keep going and the further
away from me the invitation goes the better. If you would like to collect
hairs from your friends feel free to send many hairs and information in
an envelope.
If you would like to provide me with your e-mail address I will keep you
updated on the development of the project.
Shipment address:

Sincerely yours,
Kurt Johannessen
IMPORTANT:
The information about the participants and their hair will be separated.
It is not possible to link the hair to the person.
For questions, please mail: kurt@zeth.no
