Borders and Boundaries


Border (noun): 1. The part or edge of a surface or area that forms its outer boundary.
Boundary (noun): 1. Something indicating a border or limit.

The exhibition explores the concepts of borders (constructed, imagined, imposed, or embraced) and how the boundaries they define shape our identities, relationships, and politics.

It is common practice for us to construct borders and boundaries in our mind. The imaginary lines we draw around ourselves can form many emotions and ideas that subsequently shape the way we see ourselves and interact with others. These graphic forms are interpretations of some of the ideas and emotions associated with our psychologically constructed borders and what it could mean to disregard our self-imposed boundaries.
