Borderlands: The edges of Europe [Conference abstract] by Leonardi, Paola

“…Borderlands: the edges of Europe (Paola Leonardi) "Borderlands: The edges of Europe" is a photographic project that critically re-maps the land borders of the European Union, proposing a new representation that focuses on the people who inhabit the border zones, rather than political treaties and physical boundaries decided by central powers. Over the past 10 years I have walked along the land borders of Europe, photographing extensively and asking myself the question “Where does Europe end? …”
