僕自身が色々な旅の中で密かに集めてきた境界線。
国境も含め誰かによって引かれてしまっている線たち。
大きな物語のかけらたち。
Border lines I have quietly collected on my own travels.
Lines that have been drawn by somebody even the national borders.
Fragments of a bigger story.
武蔵野美術大学と隣接する朝鮮大学の鉄条網、北海道からサハリンへ行くフェリーで採取した国境の海水、
旧ユーゴで未だにコミュニティを分ける川の水、お土産物屋で買った偽物かもしれないベルリンの壁のかけら……。
僕らの世界を隔てているのは、水や壁や物質?それとも誰か?それとも僕たち自身?
