The connected migrant at the French Museum of Immigration History

« The connected migrant made its debut at the French Museum of Immigration History when it reopened mid-2023. This is in recognition of the academic work of Dana Diminescu, whose research, at the crossroads of the human sciences, art and digital technology, focuses on this new figure of the migrant. Three works are on display in the museum’s permanent collection. Take a guided tour and talk to Dana Diminescu! »
