https://martinegoulmy.nl/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/0701-Goulmy-Kaketoe-grens-touw-56.png567567On the wooden stool lies a white cotton ribbon, tied together into an uneven line. For the cockatoo, it becomes a boundary: a moment of hesitation or an invitation to step across. The knots in the ribbon symbolize the bumps and difficulties encountered along the way. It is precisely these knots that give the line its meaning: they show that obstacles are part of every journey. Crossing – literal or metaphorical – gains value only through the challenges we face along the path. This artwork is part of the theme Without Borders, where the search for traces, choices, and open journeys takes center stage.
