These moving and still images created by OCADU students defy or define borders. The lens inherently creates a border between artist and subject. Simultaneously, it provides a platform to describe, transcend, and transgress physical, societal, political, personal, historical, cultural, racial, and gendered constructions. While some choose to bridge borders, others may explore their defined edges. The still and moving images in this exhibition flirt with the thresholds of borders we so often struggle to define.
