The Transdisciplinary Research Area (TRA) Individuals and Societies, in collaboration with the Bonn Platform for Forced Migration Studies and IMPULSE – House for Intellectual Innovation and Creativity, invites you to a dynamic exchange between the arts and academia.

How can images and narratives convey impressions of maritime (refugee) migration?
What challenges, ambivalences, and limitations arise when making experiences of migration visible?
And what new perspectives does the dialogue between art and academia open up?

Together, we would like to discuss how experiences of maritime (refugee) migration are (or can be) made visible and what possibilities transdisciplinary collaboration opens up. The focus is on the intersections of cinematic, photographic, and scholarly approaches that highlight different forms of storytelling and research.
