Universal Unconditional

Why not lend my Italian citizenship to someone who needs it as long as I am in Eindhoven? Stefania Vulpi thought of all the benefits that her official papers could bring to an immigrant in Italy, for example the right to health care and education. In return, she could use the privileges of a Dutch legal status during her time in the Netherlands. Universal Unconditional presents a flexible, contemporary form of citizenship. The black and white design of the online platform and exchange-documents illustrate the present situation of harsh contradictions and are meant to open up the debate. Is it time to rethink borders in these times of open access and quick mobility?
