In Line of Control the screen is dominated by the video of an ant caught within a drawn circle, unable to get out. It appears as if the ant imagines the impression on the paper formed by the pressure of the pen to be dangerous until the tension builds and finally the ant manages to free itself. Kumars work shows how one behaves when confronted with boundaries – real, imagined and metaphoric.
