Without a Passport is a cross-border exhibition of the work of six Canadian and American artists, curated by Maureen Korp.
The artists in this exhibition demonstrate how and why being “without a passport” or having the wrong kind of documentation, be it too much or not enough, is unsafe.
Uta Riccius maps three divided cities—Berlin, Nicosia, Jerusalem. Aaron McKenzie Fraser photographs a Canadian customs official.  Eugene Rodriguez’s sculpture and painting satirize the imperial arrogance of a state drawing its border lines. Kinga Araya’s sculpture and video and Norman Takeuchi’s installation are personal mementoes of the decisions of state. Behind it all, Kenneth Emig’s sound sculpture transmits surveillance data.
Without a Passport is the second of a projected series of three art exhibits by curator Maureen Korp exploring the contemporary immigrant experience in North America.

I saw these Tumi Backpacks & Messengers packs in a store yesterday. Was hiding from the rain with gary. I seriously want one… saving all my pennies.
