When we see geography as a spatialization of the relationships connecting systems ranging from the local to the transnational, it also becomes plain why, in border geographies, there are processes of extreme compression on all levels. The funneling functions of actual border stations intended to regulate the flow of people are only the visible points of convergence for relationship strands that are spread over a region or link up continents. At these bottlenecks, the hindrances of a mobile world have to get by without embellishingwords. These are sobering sights. Until recently, Málaga and Almería did not see themselves as borders; nowadays, the whole of Spain’s southern coastline has to uphold the country’s European identity, however this is formulated. The simplest form is still, as ever, exclusion. Europe defines itself by its outermost edge. The two Spanish enclaves of Ceuta and Melilla, situated on Moroccan territory, form an exception to the line of the border, which otherwise faithfully follows the coastlines of the two continents. They are wefts in an already complex fabric, last remnants of the colonial occupation of North Africa. With the heavy financial grants that the EU gives to the disadvantaged southern regions of Europe, the Spanish administration there is building fortresses in the form of shopping precincts and elegant beach arcades as signs of Europe’s wealth, and also as a way of setting the enclaves apart from the neighboring Moroccan towns. Borders take on a number of architectural forms. After all, built reality can only give material form to that which already exists in people’s minds as mental attitudes and the discourses related to these. The various works in the Frontera Sur RRVT project are not about a fixation on the divisive borderline. Rather, they explore the spaces that are constituted through undercover and illegal forms of action, cultural communications networks, and different technologies of crossing, and that depend on connective relationships or at least allow a certain degree of permeability. Frontera Sur RVVT (Ursula Biemann, Regula Burri, Rogelio López Cuenca, Valeriano López Dominguez, Helena Maleno Garzon, Alex Muñoz Riera, Angela Sanders) views itself as an informal grouping of artists and activists focusing their attention on the area near the Spanish-Moroccan border, with its complex layers of meaning. This is a region in which issues of sex, ethnic filtering, migration and labor, public space, and technological control mechanisms interact within a concentrated space. Plantation workers, commuting domestic various motivations for mobility lay bare a complex balance of power that reformulates the metaphorical and material constitution of borders. |
