Workshop History
Really Radical Return 2 School, Rip Space, Los Angeles, CA, organized by Maisa Imamović, September 20, 2025
Project Description
Request for Evidence looks at immigration and the pressure to justify one’s value through institutional language. The structure of the O-1 visa (the artist visa) application shaped the game’s design. Participants step into the roles of immigration officers and lawyers, assembling an artist’s identity from incomplete information. The project opens up conversations about authority and belonging and highlights the emotional weight behind bureaucratic systems. It was first shared as a public workshop at part of the Really Radical Return 2 School at Rip Space.
Developed in collaboration with Matthew J.X. Doyle.
