Lines
Institut für Alles Mögliche
Berlin, Germany, November 2016
The Lines project is an exploration of memories within the city of Berlin. There were project locations situated in six districts across the city, beginning with two sites specifically linked to the Berlin Wall; four additional sites were then chosen through an intuitive, on-the-spot process. By connecting these points, a shape on the map emerged, tracing a symbolic journey. Each location served as a canvas for a one-time performance: dragging paper tape along the ground to delineate borders and pathways. This action symbolized a way to transcend historical events and evoke memories, engaging with the physical and conceptual boundaries that shape our understanding of space. Therefore, the project explored the intersection of history and personal experience of the surroundings. It also navigates how lines, both physical and metaphorical, can divide and create new surfaces, influencing our perception of being in an environment.
