Comics and zines and sound collages and serious games, oh my! Arts-based methods for migration and integration in research, teaching, and collaboration with practitioners : Presentation of four pieces of arts-based work at Arts-based and Artistic Research in Migration and Integration Workshop, Malmö University, May 21-22, 2024.

• This presentation provides a rapid overview of four recent projects where arts-based methods shed light on migration and integration dynamics in research, teaching and practitioner collaboration. Messages from Ukraine is an example of comics-based research in which the words of Ukrainians from the opening weeks of Russia’s full-scale war against Ukraine are transformed into brief short graphic vignettes, allowing readers to more directly engage with the experiences of others. RE/DOCUMENTING MIGRATION & INTEGRATION is a zine showcasing blackout poetry, cut-up, collages and other arts-based methods as used by a diverse group of early career migration professionals from Eastern Europe to reflect on their profession and migration/integration challenges facing their countries. Soundscape Reading Reflection Response is an audio collage exploring how international university students grappled with the question: What do migration and integration sound like? It features soundscapes recorded across the world in answer to this question, the voices of students reading quotes from research literature and reflections on the process. At The Crossroads is a serious game collaboratively developed by forcibly displaced Ukrainians and a migration researcher, immersing players in real-life experiences of displaced Ukrainians refugees and displaced persons, emphasizing difficult choices they face. Through the visual elements of the game board and details provided in the scenario book, the game serves as an important platform for initiating dialogue about the consequences of forced displacement during wartime. Underlying these projects is an emphasis on arts-based methods as a setting where learning by doing and collaboration are guiding principles.
