VEHA archive

VEHA researches vernacular photography as self-identification, preserving it against historical disappearance shaped by imperial formations at the crossroads of East and West. We see the photographic archive not as a sanctioned repository but as a collective, emotional practice and a source of knowledge about the past.

    Discovery of (Non)Memory: The Archive as Publishing Space

    Main Stage
    What power can a family photograph, a funeral portrait, or an image of an ordinary tree hold over the stories nations tell about themselves? Lesia Pcholka and the team behind VEHA talk about everyday images challenging official historical narratives and exposing the myth-making behind national identity.
