Artist Amaia Molinet shall present three projects in which the notion of border is the structural axis. She proposes rethinking this concept from its political, cultural and physical dimension. She explores the reality of territories located in Europe, Sahara or Iceland, and ends up carrying out work in the territories themselves by expanding the photographic character of her usual artistic work.
In the Mugak / Fronteras project, the border is conceived as a frontier, an edge, a boundary or even as a departure from roots. Border-thinking and border-practices appear as edgebased knowledge which allows us to think of complex, in transit, dialogical identities and practices.
Borders proposes reflecting on these issues through research work and through a programme of activities that will include workshops, seminars, meetings and a series of interventions from artists and cultural agents who are invited to rethink the notion of border in our territory.
Borders is a project by Maite Garbayo Maeztu within the framework of the 2017 Artistic Research Residency jointly launched by Tabakalera and DSS2016EU.
