Found in Translation

Translating Migratory Experiences into Art

4° Ausgabe

"Found in Translation" is a collaborative project where storytellers and artists work in tandem to transform migration experiences into art. Each storyteller shares a personal narrative, which their paired artist interprets and reimagines into an artwork. Through close collaboration, empathy,

and artistic dialogue, the tandem process ensures that both voices are​ authentically represented in the final creation, uniting storytelling and visual expression into one meaningful piece.
