Varvara Shavrova's paintings and video work are set against the longest border in the world between China and her native Russia.
Along the seam of this vast expanse of land, the artist explores the metaphysical terrain of her own global nomadic - from Russia , England, Nambia, South Africa, and Ireland to China. And it is through this meandering exploration that she aims to investigate the power of borders themselves.
Shavrova examines the lasting imprint that borders - physical, political, cultural, and historical contribute to our notion of freedom and belonging.
