My Garden's Boundaries Are the Horizon – Closing event: Performative reading by To See the Inability to See

For this final reading during the show, the collective will unfold the book one last time. As the three-month exhibition comes to a close, we will engage in one more reading of the book, exploring aspects of the narrative that have been overlooked or not fully explored. During the event, the audience will take part in an unscripted reading, selecting and reading fragments from the text that resonate with them, further developing the potentiality of free improvisation and performing a score.

About My Garden's Boundaries Are the Horizon
To See the Inability to See — a collective that formed at de Appel’s Archive in 2019 consisting of Arefeh Riahi, Martín La Roche Contreras and Maartje Fliervoet — developed a foldable multidirectional book/object called My Garden’s Boundaries Are the Horizon: A Porous Reader to Unguard the Garden. The publication has sculptural and performative qualities, stressing the relationship between bodies and books; provoking collectivity in writing, reading and thinking. The book/object has now unfolded into this exhibition — a repertoire of objects, gestures and events that expands its content into the space and in relation to other bodies, such as those of readers, visitors and artworks. This unfolding takes place on a flexible sculpture display that also holds a selection of works, weaving the publication, the artworks and the artefacts into an inter-related constellation of physical and spatial experiences.
