As performative and political acts, translation, intervention and participation are movements that take place across, along and between borders. Such movements traverse geographic boundaries, affect social distinctions, and challenge conceptual categorisations -- while shifting and transforming lines of separation themselves.

From their individual cultural backgrounds they ask how these movements affect related fields such as corporeality, perception, (self-)representation, and expression.
