What is the role of performing arts in challenging the dominant narratives and imaginary on migration? And, specifically, how can performing arts support diversity in European cities? Through different research and curatorial experiences lead along Atlas of Transitions project, the volume offers new insights on the ways in which artistic practices build spaces of resistance, forms of subversion, and counter-hegemonic discourses on migration.
Which relations and practices can be interwoven between the artistic field and academic research? How they mutually nurture themselves? Our French partner, Le Channel Scène National De Calais, in collaboration with the University of Lille, has tried to answer some of these questions. The results are collected in the new issued paperwork - Porositès - which investigates concept as caring, shelter, exile, and borders. Check it out!
The docu-Film Monuments of Conflict & Convergence by Motus Terrae, has just been released. Discover more about Lavrio city identity, its history and people migration stories. Watch it here or visit Atlas of Transitions' YouTube channel.
The first chapter of "Atlas of Ghosts – Directing notes for The Nigger of the 'Narcissus" is out! halfway between a directing notebook and a visual essay, Pietro Floridia and Sara Pour has turned actor cases, stories and instances into images composing an editing board, to compare or contaminate distant fields. The whole book will be published soon.

The state of weightlessness of migrant caregivers in Italy
The suspended world of Samantha Cristoforetti and the burden to bear of an elderly care giver, far away from her home country.
