Migration and Borders
maps, 2006

You cannot talk about the migration of human beeings without speaking about the borders that are established by other human beeings. The connection is obvious, the border is the most dangerous barrier which the migrant comes across. It mediates the illusion of a perfectly cut out world into living spaces, regions or countries. The border appears as a harmonizing element, but paradoxically it separates humans as much as it regroups them.
For example into poor an rich.
