"Borderless & Beyond Borders" is the project of the ITS Foundation to promote the deep meaning of the borderless theme through creativity. The project is divided into the exhibition "Fashionlands: Clothes Beyond Borders" of 25 works by young designers that explores the role of fashion in overcoming traditional boundaries at the Museum of Art in Fashion in Trieste which will be accompanied by an artistic residency involving the winners of the ITS Contest.
In 2025, ITS Arcademy extends beyond its walls with an open-air photographic installation. Curated by photographer Massimo Gardone, the installation features 10 large-scale photographs that celebrate the talent of the young designers participating in the special GO! 2025 Borderless Award, promoted by the Friuli Venezia Giulia Regional Authority and presented during the 2024 edition of ITS Contest. These works explore the absence and transcendence of borders through fashion and storytelling.
