这个大型的公共艺术作品将围栏视为一个隔离的标志，并在公共和私人空间周围划定边界、界定人流以及细分景观。
This large-scale outdoor installation considers the fence as a marker for exclusion and the boundaries that are drawn around public and private spaces, circumscribing movement and subdividing the landscape.
尽管围栏常常牵涉到与结构有关的问题，但围栏也可以是提供安全和庇护场所。为消除这种对立的关系，《长界》以围栏作为艺术品的思考起点，旨在思考安大略省布拉德利博物馆密西沙加周围的土地在历史上是如何被占领、定居和殖民的。
While barriers are often implicated in larger concerns related to control and power structures, fences can also provide security and sanctuary. Drawing out these tensions, LeuWebb Project’s site-specific work ‘Long Division’ uses the fence as a starting off point to consider how the land around Mississauga, Ontario’s Bradley Museum has been occupied, settled and colonized.
项目以一系列松散的同心环为主，带有离散的开口，邀请参与者在层层围栏内移动，最终将人们吸引到无法穿透的中环。无论是向前还是向后看，《长界》都让人开始思考这片土地的起源和定居点，同时着眼于围栏，向外扩展到当前和近期的国家和边界观念、边界的不可渗透性以及对移民和难民行动自由不断变化的关系和态度等。
The land art installation features a series of loosely concentric rings with discrete openings, inviting participants to move within the layers of fencing, ultimately drawing people to the impenetrable centre ring. Looking both forward and backwards, LeuWebb’s ‘Long Division’ calls into question the site’s origins and settlement while looking to the fence to expand outward to the current and near-future ideas of nation and boundary, the impermeability of borders and the shifting relationships and attitudes toward migrant’s and refugee’s freedom of movement.
艺术家进一步解释说：“该作品与布拉德利博物馆遗址进行了对话，也是一件展品，从这个展品中而引发了有关控制、排斥和包容的思考，最终通过破坏围栏的功能和形式品质使围栏的概念复杂化，激发了参与者无限的想象力。”
The artists further explain that this work “engages in a dialogue with the Bradley Museum site and adds a new critical layer that opens up questions about control, exclusion and inclusion, ultimately seeking to complicate the idea of fence through subverting its function and formal qualities, inviting the potential for play and participatory structural manipulations.”
该作品是由诺亚•布朗斯坦（Noa Bronstein）策展的“公共卷”展览的委托作品，该展览于2019年5月在加拿大安大略省密西沙加市进行，参展的艺术家包括Joi T. Arcand，Germaine Koh，Morris Lum等。
The work was commissioned for the ‘Public Volumes’ exhibition, May 2019, curated by Noa Bronstein, and including artists Joi T. Arcand, Germaine Koh, Morris Lum and others, in Mississauga, Ontario, Canada.
