The world has a lot to say about immigrants—endless statistics, policies, and spectacle.

Visas, forms, restrictions, rules: it flattens us into paperwork. But we are so much more than what a document can hold.

We are people who left and stayed and returned. We are the late-night phone calls home, the trace of an accent that refuses to disappear, the split heart that learns to beat in two places at once.

Our life is not a tragedy or a burden, but a celebration of everything we carry, everything we build, and everything we become.

Migrastory comes from that truth. It compiles projects spanning media and shores, offering a more intimate archive of migration—one built through touch, voice, ritual and the everyday acts that help us survive distance.

It is rooted in my story—mine, my family's, my people's—but it is made for anyone who has ever lived away from home, felt distance stretch and pull, or built a life in the in-between.

Anyone who has left home, or wished they could return, will find echoes here.
