As most of the projects, the Hozoi two-wheel trip was inspired by encounters. For the past 20 years Hozoï has been criss-crossing the world to meet new people and embrace their culture while expressing his art.
He had been thinking for a while that he should go on long trip abroad to truly immerse himself in foreign cultures. However he needed a concrete project to make it happen.
As he was drawing graffiti outside Motul HQ office in Aubervilliers, he connected to the motorbikers working there as they shared a common urge for freedom.
And this is where it all occured to him; he would tour the world and discover the motorcycle cultures it holds!
He came back to Motul with the idea of exploring motorcycle communities around the world and share his impressions about it through articles, videos, photos but also through his art.
The project takes place in the following countries:
The Hozoi two-wheel trip is the story of a city lover and mechanical enthusiast for whom the street is key to one’s artistic expression. On the street you can reach out to everyone no matter their race, religion, age, sex and social status. The street sets you free!
During the expedition, Hozoï will be exposed to different uses for a two-wheel and will report on it through articles, photos, videos and also via graphic representations.
The Hozoï two-wheel trip is a road journal about freedom, artistic expression and people. It is a tale about humanity and passion.
