“Should I let the outside world influence my choices? Or am I willing to get to know myself and embark on that journey inward?” Living and being in between in cultures, in an in-between land, comes with the inward journey. The gathering and gaining of experience, and the learning of the history, culture and the laws of this land. Gloria Anzaldue, in her book La Frontera, addresses the significance of belief systems within the context of the borderland; acknowledging the tensions and contradictions that arise from the clashing systems an institutions, it is essential that individuals in the borderland to forge their own spiritual paths, drawing from diverse sources. As such the work embodies this inward process of collecting, negotiating, building and destroying; all within our in-between land.
