Abstract

This is an introduction to a selection of portraits that are part of a personal archive of photographs collected over the last 6 years. The portraits are of artists, cultural agents, activists and people who, like me, have settled in the diaspora and who, despite the nuances of each experience, share the journey as a common element that allows us to learn from each other. The intention of the essay is to pay tribute to these people as a gesture of gratitude for their guidance and solidarity in the distance. At the same time, the exercise is a bet on the construction of an imaginary of our own about migration and a strategy to combat invisibility and silence through the recognition of the identities that emerge as a result of these processes.
