Crafting Exile
BCB Studios
Crafting Exile explores different, and often under-investigated, dimensions of life in exile, as experienced by Chilean exiles in the UK. The podcast builds on previous research, which included the film and exhibition Crafting Resistance: The Art of Ex-Political Prisoners. Emerging themes included the intergenerational transmission of memory, alongside questions of legacy, transnational culture and identity. The podcast series picks up on these themes, exploring them through the experiences and perspectives of those living in exile. Ultimately, Crafting Exile aims to deepen our understanding of the experience of exile and consider how the knowledge and perspectives of those who have lived through it can contribute to building more socially just societies.Musical excerpts from the sound recording 'Nuevo Dia', taken from the album Desaparecido by Vladimir Vega and Friends, are used here with the kind permission of Vladimir Vega's estate.Special thanks to Gloria Miqueles for all her t
