BETWEEN THE LINES!

1961 early August, more than 1000 East Germans were using the S-Bahn daily as an escape route into West Berlin.

In 2015 over 1 million Syrians took the railroad as a compass to follow by foot from East to West Europe.

“Between the Lines!” Focuses on displacement as a narrative in both 1961 and 2015 by using collected stones from Berlin’s railways to shed a light on the understanding of our body as a “home”, emphasizing our mind as an “exile”.
