Detailed Description

Borderline Visible, 77 min, 232 pages by Ant Hampton

Voice & sound, english version: Ant Hampton

Published in 2023 by Time Based Editions

 

Borderline Visible is a book of images and text fragments which the reader is navigated through by an accompanying soundtrack that activates and reworks the non-linear publication. The work documents two artist friends travelling from Lausanne, Switzerland to Izmir, Turkey, with this seemingly direct journey opening into a non-linear exploration of the borders – geopolitical, personal, historical – encountered along the way. The resulting study connects Frontex border enforcement to historic Sephardi communities by way of Eliot’s The Waste Land in a rich weaving of research and material found en route.

 

The accompanying audio track is included in the book and can be accessed by scanning a QR code that is printed on the back cover.
