Cartographic

Anxieties

Cartographic Anxieties opened on the 14th of March 2020 at the Conflictorium, a little before the country went into lockdown.

The show asks some fundamental questions on borders, their constructions, their crossings and futility.

If cartographic anxieties are loosely accepted as the anxieties of the state when subject to cartographic aggression of the other, one has to delve into how this aggression is reflected in the everyday life of the people.

This production of borders internally and externally is barely linear but rather continuous, its nature is not simply that of segregation but of a more omnipresent manner of control between communities, cities, corporations and countries.
