Trainproject

This work was created by artist José Ramón Bas in September and October 2012 with school children in Sri Lanka. It is the continuation of "Bango", a similar project which started in the Republic of Congo - Brazzaville, the Democratic Republic of the Congo- Kinshasa and some Spanish schools.

This project consists, on the one hand, of the work of school children on blackboards, where they expressed what they liked, and, on the other hand, of the creation of train coaches which will be put together with other coaches created by thz xhildren of different countries and will create a train called "Trainproject". This project is planned to be rolled out with more children around the world.

The train symbolizes a vehiculen a commonality, which binds children from all over the world, irrespective of their origins, social status or wealth, a universal childhood game, the inspiration of travel and discovery of diverse cultures and new horizons.
