FRONTIERS
The borders change, in a century the world shape has been in constant evolution. The borders due to conflicts do move and seems to be like layers on top of each others.
The consequences are forced migrations, humiliation, fights, frustration, ethnical minority but also reconciliation, peace ecc..
A series of gold-plated aluminium sculptures, idealising borders and stigmatising their evolutions: the nation symbol, the sense of nation reinforced by borders drawn as a result of war, the national ideal. It involves overlaying historical paths, incorporating the key dates in the history of a nation.
