A self-managed community located on a former boundary between East and West Berlin.

03 — THRESHOLD
NOT A BORDER TO CROSS, BUT A SPACE TO INHABIT.

The inhabitants of the threshold are transformers, creators and dwellers of in-between spaces.

The project treats liminality as an active condition.

04 — FOUND AT THE EDGE

THE BORDER
LEAVES
OBJECTS.

The physical perimeter of the community became a site of collection.

Rather than functioning as neutral evidence, these objects form a provisional narrative of the threshold.

05 — COUNTER-SPACE

A LIMIT
CAN OPEN.

The threshold is speculative because its meaning is never completely fixed.

Wagenburg Lohmühle makes this visible through occupation rather than representation.

06 — INSTALLATION

N.B.K.
BERLIN

The collected objects were brought together with projections at Neuer Berliner Kunstverein.

The installation displaced the project from urban boundary to exhibition space.
