BORDERS
A line, between two fields, a fence or a simple stone row.
A sign of both end and beginning of land.
A limit for a known place where the history of women and men continues and grows, from generation to generation.
A border line signs a territory and defines a Nation (from the Latin word “natio” that means birth) as a reference point for all the life. It is a keeper of memory, a guarantee of identity and pacific cohabitation.
A territory without borders is a vanishing land and the populations that live there are deprived of the right to remember and to recognise themselves.
Those are struggled lands where great economic considerations are at stake.

CONFINI (BORDERS) is dedicated to those who share a common history and links of a population, not allowed to draw their borders.
Those populations – Palestinians, Indios, Kurds, Cecenians, etc. – are deprived of the right to exist and to be a Nation.
