Topic and objective
The selected artists will be asked to create a site-specific work, exploring the concept of border through sound works or geolocated video art.
The concept of the border will be explored in all possible meanings: geographical, historical, cultural, political, but also as a symbolic and inner space. The border as a place of division, but also of encounter and exchange, as an element of identity or transformation. The selected artists will have the opportunity to work on these suggestions, making use of archival materials (texts, photographs, videos and interviews) and immersing themselves directly in the context of Gorizia and Nova Gorica, cities that physically embody the concept of BORDERLESS.
The works will become part of a phygital exhibition path, accessible online h24 and will be presented in different territorial contexts by our partners such as the AESON festival and FONDAZIONE AQUILEIA.
