MiXER 08

In an attempt to lose ourselves in Lendava, We found ourselves at D’CLINIC!

Reaching Lendava through Budapest, Yuko and Zeina watched large trucks pass by… Listening to locals, they soon realized how multicultural and diverse Lendava is and how the borders are blurred across the region. Yuko and Zeina roamed around the town, trying to discover its little secrets and in their quest they found the subject of identity, borders, and bees really intriguing and interesting.

After researching and interviewing young people from the region, Yuko and Zeina designed an artist book that expresses their experience and thoughts about identity. The book express the idea of how diverse the concept of identity is through a multitude of opinions and opens up this discussion through a set of cards that will transfer this discussion to the self and others.

The book also contains an abstract expression of how our road maps and the bee paths are very similar in their borderlessness. Bees fly about; borderless. A sentence that reminds us of the importance of bees in our lives, and how they travel endless paths that we may choose to do too. An abstract honeycomb cut-out that transforms itself into an interesting form.
