"Just as the District of Columbia was carved into and out of the borders of Maryland
and Virginia, artworks have borders that are tangible, malleable, and reaching-like
geographic boundaries. Yet they connote intangible values and dreams and ideals-much
like the idealism that goes into creating a nation's capital. This exhibition is about
interconnections despite borders and boundaries, and of course the power of art
to create connection and beauty."

- Jayme McLellan, Juror
