A Walk Along the City's Perimeter
2008For “Wandering Lines: Towards a New Culture of Space”, Sander provides an opportunity for Christchurch Art Gallery visitors to vicariously wander the boundaries of the city. She has employed a walker to trace the circumference of Christchurch during the course of the Biennial. Inside the Gallery, a map showing the path the walker has taken is updated daily. Playing on the relationship between the centre and the periphery, the work encourages visitors to visualise the rich terrain beyond the limits of the “Cultural Precinct”.
