Moving Stories – Collective Exhibition on Emotion and Migration

Exhibition on Emotion and Migration

What does it feel like to be a migrant?

Beyond the instant empathic, emotional response, an exhibition at Roskilde University Library shows a number of artistic and academic works on emotion and migration that have been developed in collaboration between four migrants living in Denmark and a transdisciplinary team of – migratory – researchers.

The exhibition is a result of transdisciplinary collaboration

Mix together computer scientists, performance designers, artists, an anthropologist, a curator, an ethno-musicologist AND research participants, and you get a stimulating art exhibition at the heart of Roskilde University Library.

The exhibition is about the relations between emotions and migration as much as it is about new ways to produce and convey knowledge.

Moving Stories integrates artistic and academic practice.

It is intended for everyone, both academic and non-academic audiences.

Attend the launch of the exhibition and experience new ways to be knowledge-able.

After the exhibition closes in May 2022, the works will be compiled in an exhibition booklet together with other material from the project.
