Abstract
This manuscript is a reflexive collaboration between two differently situated researchers. It meets at the crossroad of knowledge and visual activism at three levels: it uses a case study to analyze the possibilities of photovoice as a form of resistance against narratives of hate; it reflects on the ways in which the observed and the observer cooperate to construct from their own perspectives a legitimized knowledge aiming to promote visibility and social transformation; finally, it revises whether photovoice may become a form of visual activism and, if so, the ways in which images may be used toward this goal. Using as a point of departure the work of the photographer Diane Arbus and a photovoice project on being a migrant woman in Spain, the authors elaborate on the power of images to work at the margins, from the margins, and for the margins.
Résumé
Ce manuscrit est le fruit d’une collaboration réflexive entre deux chercheuses situés à des endroits différents. Il se situe au carrefour de la connaissance et de l’activisme visuel à trois niveaux : il utilise une étude de cas pour analyser les possibilités du photovoice comme forme de résistance aux récits de haine; il réfléchit aux façons dont l’observé et l’observateur coopèrent pour construire à partir de leurs propres perspectives un savoir légitimé visant à promouvoir la visibilité et la transformation sociale; enfin, il examine si les images peuvent devenir une forme d’activisme visuel et, si c’est le cas, les façons dont elles peuvent être utilisées à cette fin. En utilisant comme point de départ le travail de la photographe Diane Arbus et un projet de photovoice sur le fait d’être une femme migrante en Espagne, les auteurs élaborent sur le pouvoir des images de travailler aux marges, à partir des marges et pour les marges.
