The story is about a person, who has a single path leading to his home. It is complicated system of bridges and pathways  that crosses  marshes and bogs, and it is the only connection to the outer world.

Someday in the autumn storm the system built on posts and pickets collapsed. The reconstruction lasted the whole next summer and only one year later it was fixed and ready for walking. When everything was done,  master sat in front of his house, had tea,  watched migratory birds flying away  awaiting when finally somebody will come and visit him.

 

In the background of the installation one can hear migratory birds flying over Latvia in the fall of 2008.
