Political borders, the material boundaries between States, are today places of movement and immobility. Migrants in camps contrast with the traffic of goods accumulated in trailers and trucks. At some borders we can see walls, at others nothing more than the mapped extensions of nature. At these coordinates, frictions and disputes, encounters and conflicts arise. Borders extend in the form of detention centers and migration stations; but they are also reconfigured in artistic interventions or maps painted on the walls of a migrant shelter. In the anxiety of the images, aesthetics, ways of seeing, absences, announced visibilities are insinuated.
