Led by London-based bilingual non-fiction writer Zixin Li and conducted in Chinese, this workshop offers a distinctive opportunity for participants to delve into and chronicle their personal experiences of migration through the art of storytelling.
The session aims to empower attendees to craft memoirs that not only illuminate their individual journeys but also contribute to the broader tapestry of migration narratives.
Lasting 3.5 hours, including a congenial afternoon tea break, the workshop is designed to cultivate a supportive environment for nuanced cultural expression, transforming personal memories into artistic reflections, and making space for new voices and perspectives.
This event is part of esea contemporary's Summer Programme ‘From (Counter-)Archives to Activation.’ Entering the second year of programming following the institute’s transformation, we find it opportune to activate our platform through the lens of archives and counter-archives in collaboration with our extensive network of collaborators and co-workers. Throughout our summer programme, from May to August, 2024, we will actively listen to, engage with, speak out about, write down, touch upon, and look into a diverse array of archival and counter-archival materials.
