4:00-5:30pm, RI 209 Keynote Tings Chak Undocumented: The Architecture of Migrant Detention and Gendered Migrant Labour Over the past decade, over 100,000 people children, women, and men have been jailed indefinitely without charge or trial. This is the reality of immigration detention in Canada that is violently invisibilized. Migrants are detained primarily because they are undocumented. Likewise, these sites of detention bare little trace drawings and photos are classified; access is extremely limited. The detention centres, too, are undocumented. This presentation will draw from Tings Chak s graphic novel, Undocumented: The Architecture of Migrant Detention, which documents the banality and violence of the architecture in contrast to the stories of daily resistance among immigration detainees. This work will be presented alongside Tings Chak s other visual projects that explore gendered detention in Texas and migrant domestic workers struggle for economic and spatial justice in Hong Kong. This presentation highlights the ways in which visual representation can be used as a political tool for documenting and witnessing social, economic, and spatial realities that are often hidden from view. 22
