"Espacios & Lines," a temporary art exhibition that showcases the culture of our shared binational region of 7.1 million people as it explores the border of art and design. "Espacios & Lines" features the work of 16 local artists, half of whom work binational, five who fully reside in Baja California. Their work addresses the region’s shared symbolism, unseen vantage points, reimagined lines, design as a necessity, design as reconstruction and more. This exhibit follows the World Design Organization’s (WDO) joint designation of San Diego and Tijuana as the World Design Capital 2024 (WDC). As the first binational selection in WDO history, this designation for San Diego and Tijuana is pioneering and brings a global spotlight to our region. "Espacios & Lines" will be on display in pre-security and post-security areas of the airport from now until January 2025. For more information, visit wdc2024.org.
