What defines a border? Where should its line be drawn and whos decision is it to take? How do we perceive borders and what effect do they have – on us, the individuals facing them or the space they define?

Some borders can be experienced physically by wire and weir systems. Others are often overlooked although they define our everyday lives. And some are transgressed on a daily basis without anyone noticing.

BORDERLINES exhibits works in different media, amongst which video, photography, installation, sculpture both manufactured or achieved via 3D-Scan, and painting. Selma Alaçam, Khaled Barakeh, Ari Goldmann, Sylvia Henze and Helga Weihs examine the idea of borders from different angles. A study in an idea not theoretical at all.
