2025: MAPS IN MOTION


Building on 2024’s Body as Data, this next phase continues to centre lived experiences of displacement, migration and resistance through collaborative site-specific performance. Working across the coast, the project will explore embodied mapping - transforming landscapes marked by surveillance and exclusion into spaces of agency, memory, and belonging. Through workshops, a public mapping event, and a living digital archive, The Body as Data 2025 invites communities to create a multilayered migration map of the Kent coast.​
