With Frontière, the Cité des sciences et de l’industrie presents an exhibition that challenges the idea of a border as a simple line on a map. Models, films and interactive displays show how borders determine which people, goods and information can cross them.
A projection onto a model of the US–Mexico border contrasts the scale of trade with the controls imposed on people. The exhibition then shifts perspective to Venezuelans moving to Colombia. In Europe, it explores both borders that have vanished from maps and those that continue to endanger people attempting to cross. An investigation into the death of Blessing Matthew brings an individual story to these geographical representations.
The visit continues this exploration at sea and in cyberspace. Visitors can, for example, simulate blocking or redirecting information on the Internet. This detour highlights something these borders share with those on land: crossing depends as much on who controls access as on where the boundary has been drawn.
