BOUNDARIES

BRINK bkgd2.png

Call to mind the boundary of the body. Define space by perimeters and distance and function. Think bone. Think bound. Think born. Boundaries divide; land, people, language, customs, and histories. They confine and resist. With consent and context, boundaries break. They initiate urgent change. Boundaries are thresholds in need of crossing. Won’t you join us? Toe the line. What do you see on the brink of boundaries?
