Project X was developed and realized by artist Jonathan Wanders to celebrate the 10th edition of De Poorten van Reijmerstok, an international art exhibition that is organized every two years in Reijmerstok in South-Limburg (NL). The anniversary edition took place on May 21, 2018 - Whit Monday - and was themed Natúúrlijk (Natural) Reijmerstok.

The art project Refugees (#1) depicted the timeless story of a recurring reality: the refugee theme. Every day, people all over the world are forced to flee their homes for fear of death or persecution. They only take what they can carry, away from poverty, hopelessness and oppression. When they cross international borders they are called refugees. They cross oceans and minefields. Many will never return. They risk their lives and their future.

If you want to keep history alive, you have to excite people again and again. The Remembrance Road art project was a lively, exciting and temporary monument. This second edition could be experienced from April to June 2015 along the provincial road N278 (connection Maastricht-Aachen), between Margraten and Cadier en Keer (NL) ánd along the thoroughfare at Henri-Chapelle (BE). This on the occasion of the annual Remembrance Day (May 4), Liberation Day (May 5) and Memorial Day (end of May).
