About

The aim of this project is to map the infrastructure of solidarity developed in course of these protest movements and to document the artefacts emerging from the discursive community. The archive consists of:

• Oral history interviews with (anonymized) protesters and organizers
• Site maps curated through focus group discussions and artistically rendered
• Performance pieces and artwork created in response to/solidarity with the protest movements

Artefacts of Resistance is a collaboration between

• Dr Raktim Ray (Development Planning Unit, UCL),
• Dr Srilata Sircar (India Institute, King’s College London),
• Manu Luksch (Royal College of Art),
• Mukul Patel (Royal College of Art), and ,
• Dr Ufaque Paiker (Ashoka University).

The work is commissioned under Phase II of AHRC’s Imagining Futures, University of Exeter. A pilot project was developed as part of the King’s College London x Somerset House Studios Programme 2021.

Archival materials are drawn from the Transnational Infrastructures of Resistance: From Empire to Occupation project funded by the Antipode Right to the Discipline grant.

The backend uses the Soundings archive running the pan.do/ra open media server.
