Audiovisual Performance
Duration: 35 minutes
Border Amnesia is an audiovisual performance that intersects the fields of art, psychology, poetry, and digital technologies. It resists the enforced forgetting that sustains borders: national, digital, psychological. In a Europe haunted by its own selective memory, the work confronts the violence of amnesia as a political instrument: what we choose not to see, name, or remember. The performance merges real-time generative sound and image to unmap the architectures of division, asking what it means to perceive beyond inherited separations of East and West, self and state, human and machine.
