AlbakiReads Editorial

Art and the experiences of undocumentedness

Accompanying the Fowler Museum at UCLA exhibition, this publication brings together artworks by people who are currently or formerly undocumented, alongside writing by undoc+ writers. Its stated themes range from the complexity of immigration journeys and immigrant labor to hyperdocumentation, re-indigenizing in diaspora, healing from trauma, and remembrance of people who died seeking the American dream. The book also addresses imperfect solidarities with exile and refugee communities. Participants’ names are deliberately withheld for their protection, making anonymity part of the publication’s context.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • For readers interested in contemporary art and art connected to immigration experiences.
  • For those exploring themes of diaspora, labor, documentation, and remembrance.
  • For readers interested in exhibition publications shaped by artists’ and writers’ lived experiences.

Book overview

Highlights the aesthetics of undocumentedness by featuring artworks from artists in the undoc+ spectrum

This book accompanies the Fowler Museum at UCLA exhibition (in)visibility, featuring the artwork of individuals in the undoc+ spectrum (currently or formerly undocumented). The works on view visually explore the aesthetics of undocumentedness, the complexity of immigration journeys, hyperdocumentation, re-indigenizing in diaspora, immigrant labor, healing from immigrant trauma, imperfect solidarities with exile and refugee communities, and remembrance of those who perished in search of the American dream. The show is guided by the aesthetic achievements of undoc+ artists; the publication is composed by undoc+ writers who, like the curator of this project, have been or are currently undocumented. The names of all participants have been purposefully concealed for their protection.
