Creating Your Desired Travel Document
June 23, 2021 @ 7:00 PM – 8:30 PM
FREE
Led by: Ana Luisa Bernárdez & Sebastián Rodríguez y Vasti
Creating Your Desired Travel Document will be a hands-on workshop that explores ideas behind travel, immigration laws, and borders and therefore, identity documents like passports, visas, and permits. Participants will then create their own desired travel document. This will be followed by a discussion where we collectively reflect on our creations.
Material kits will be delivered to participants with all the necessary materials for this workshop, including cardstock, construction paper and drawing utensils.
Creating Your Desired Travel Document is part of the Identification quad. This quad is focused around the imposed systems of Identity Documents as tools for surveillance and control. The quad reimagines other ways to identify our inner beings that are not focused on constructs such as our nationality, race or gender.
