Sead Kazanxhiu as part of Spatiality – a group exhibition exploring the quality or character of being spatial or related to space.

In I don’t have borders to protect, a poetic phrase becomes a spatial statement. Presented in a range of languages, it refers to the absence of a word for “border” in Romani. The absence reflects the Roma people’s relationship to land and spatial belonging and underscores the violence inherent in defending territories that never truly belonged to Roma people. For the first time, the phrase is presented in Swedish and on a sign familiar to many Stockholmers, anchoring the work in the city’s visual and social landscape. It gestures toward a future in which territorial borders lose their significance and spatial belonging is reimagined.

Sead Kazanxhiu is a Tirana-based artist with a degree in painting from the University of Arts in Tirana. His multidisciplinary practice, shaped by his identity as a Roma, addresses questions of belonging, visibility, and marginalization. Working across installation, performance, and public intervention, his work explores the narratives and lived realities of Roma communities. Kazanxhiu has been internationally exhibited at placec like Documenta fifteen (Kassel), Manifesta 14 bienial in Skopje and is currently participating in the Roma Pavilion at Triennale Milano.
