(Un)Sighted Archives of Migration explores the potential of migratory archives as spaces for encounter and remembrance, highlighting the archival agency of migrants and the complexities of power relations, spatial and temporal dynamics, media practices, and meaning production in their creation, maintenance, viewing, appropriation, destruction, and loss.

Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


The (Un)Sighted Archives of Migration recognize the profound significance of migration as an integral component of social practice and collective memory. However, archives that have themselves migrated or were founded by individuals or communities with migration experiences often receive limited public and institutional recognition. This groundbreaking volume, with its interdisciplinary approach spanning art, anthropology, and social activism, presents fresh insights into the immense potential of migratory archives as vibrant spaces for encounter and remembrance, as well as valuable contributions to the diverse collective memories and identities of post-migratory societies. By highlighting the archival agency of migrants, the chapters raise thought-provoking questions regarding the multifaceted, collaborative processes of knowledge production within and beyond an archive, its boundaries, and its materiality.

Focusing on the intricate complexities of power relations, spatial and temporal dynamics, media practices, and meaning-making involved in the creation, maintenance, viewing, appropriation, destruction, and loss of such archives, the chapters actively contribute to a critical methodological and theoretical discourse on (un)sighted archives as spaces of encounter and resistance in a transitional realm of visibility and invisibility.

Originally published as a special issue of Visual Anthropology, this book offers a valuable contribution to the field of migration studies and beyond.
