Border By Memory is an image of my attempt to draw the line of the border between Bulgaria and Romania by memory. The drawing and respectively the neon are very approximate and not correct picture of that border. Every mistake of my hand was “loss to” or “enlarge” this or that of both countries. The title itself is a clue for understanding the work and its references to the memory and history of that border and its dramatic transformation during last century, affecting many lives from both sides.
