Beating the Bounds; The Case for Ethical Borders in Portugal and the World

Client: Believer Magazine
AD: Kristen Radtke

One of several illustrations for the Borders Issue of Believer Magazine (October / November 2019).

Borders may predate the existence of states, but our bodies are older than either. And as borders have grown to occupy more space and have shapeshifted to take on increasingly personal and personalized forms—as smart-city surveillance, as predictive policing technologies, as mountainous databases of biometric info—so, too, have the wounds they leave behind.
