Consigned to Border: The terror and possibility in the things not seen, 1997

Judith Barry, Consigned to Border: The terror and possibility in the things not seen, INSITE97 (3-D model)

For her INSITE97 project, Consigned to Border: The terror and possibility in the things not seen/Consignado a la frontera: el terror y la posibilidad en las cosas que no se han visto, Judith Barry designed a five-sided, T-shaped billboard upon which a video and sound work with changing images of regional landscapes were projected. Located at the Children’s Museum/Museo de los Niños in downtown San Diego, this indoor installation invited the viewer to compare the two border cities, San Diego and Tijuana, cities with similar geographies but very dissimilar appearances. Each side of the billboard focused on a different section of each city, from the coastlines to busy urban spaces, using photography and collage.

Curators: Jessica Bradley, Olivier Debroise, Ivo Mesquita, and Sally Yard
Venue: Children’s Museum/Museo de los Niños, San Diego
