Exploring and crossing boundaries: For Crossing Borders, two composers and a visual artist create both a spiritual and a material space in which the sense and nonsense of borders and limitations can be explored. Urgent social and political issues are questioned: immigration, refugee movements, Israeli-Palestinian borders, Israeli-German past and present as well as gender boundaries. The composition, which also explores the limits of the instruments, is based on writings by immigrant or refugee writers.This project is part of round 4 of the International Coproduction Fund, year 2017-2018.
