The Border Moves With – Reflections of the Path. An Exhibition in Two Parts
Jolanda Roskosch
3 July 2026 19:00 – 5 July 2026 19:00
Four years on the move. Over 4,000 km walked on various long-distance trails. Most of them belong to the famous network of European pilgrimage routes, the Way of St. James (Spanish: Camino de Santiago). Walking overcomes all boundaries. The path brings people together – people of different origins, cultures, and beliefs. They share the trail, exhaustion, and experiences, no matter where they are geographically.
Mirrors allow encounters with oneself. Exciting and calming at the same time, reappearing in ever-changing landscapes. The border is not just a line, but a relationship in space. Beyond the mirror’s border, a new world unfolds. Where exactly am I? Is this really me? In the mirror, shifted perspectives and fragmented spaces appear – and completely different landscapes. Sometimes just turning around is worth it. Perspective changes are worth it.
The exhibition is divided into two parts. At the Berliner Berg Brewery, individual works from different hiking trails are shown – a starting point that opens the view onto the path. From there, the route extends into the urban space: an approximately 3.5 km walk through Neukölln, where images appear along the way – on fences, in cafés, restaurants, and other locations along the route. Next to each image hangs a QR code that leads to the place where the photo was taken – to the actual location of the mirror. Via Street View, the location can be explored, as if the Camino passes by briefly. At many stations, stamps are waiting: visitors can fill in their own pilgrim passport and experience a kind of real Camino for themselves.
The Camino is borderless. It emerges wherever people walk. And you can do it too!

Biography
Jolanda Roskosch
Born in 1975, she grew up in a small village in Upper Silesia, surrounded by meadows, animals, and freshly mown fields. Since 1996, she has lived in Berlin. Professionally, she works in marketing and graphic design, but her true self is found on the move – on foot. For her, hiking is not a hobby but an attitude: walking, breathing, observing, disappearing, and reappearing.
Her photographic work develops outdoors, slowly and intuitively, mostly while walking. Mountains, forests, paths, and landscapes shape her images. Being on the move is both her subject and her method. She believes that walking shifts perspectives, dissolves boundaries, and makes people kinder – especially toward themselves.
