For this performative reading, the collective To See the Inability to See will explore new threads and possibilities for a collective reading of the publication, placing emphasis on different aspects and particular stories. These elements could complement and enrich the audience’s understanding and interpretation of the show.

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.
