Guided by art as a medium for sharing felt-knowledge across barriers, borders, and changing environmental baselines, Marco will travel to expand his understanding of the human condition. Mindful of his imprints as he crosses a continuum of complex landscapes, he aspires to embrace uncertainty, connect with others from a place of humility and gratitude, and learn more about processes of healing. Although his exact itinerary is evolving, he anticipates visiting Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Rwanda, India, Cambodia, Laos, and China. In wandering the globe, he hopes to deconstruct his privilege, and in doing so, he hopes to clarify his vision for how he can best serve others moving forward.
