Missing Objects and Affective Fragments
In this article, I explore how queer heritage can be created in museums through fragments. I apply the concept of reparative curating to demonstrate how fragmented heritage can be ‘patched up’ and mapped through affective means. I examine this in the context of an exhibition at the Helsinki City Museum called M/S Baltic Queers – Experiences of LGBTQAI+ Migration. Through interviews, observation, and by using the exhibition as research material, I…
Tunteet, jännitteet ja valta museoiden yhteiskuratointihankkeissa
Museoiden yhteiskunnallisessa roolissa on viime vuosina korostuneet pyrkimykset moniäänisyyteen ja avoimuuteen. Yksi tapa toteuttaa näitä tavoitteita on yhteiskuratointi eri muodoissaan. Tarkastelemme artikkelissamme yhteiskuratoinnille annettuja merkityksiä ja siinä ilmeneviä valtasuhteita. Katsauksemme tuo uudella tavalla esille myös tunteiden merkityksen museotyössä. Onnistunut yhteiskuratointi edellyttää museoammattilaisilta uudenlaista osaam…

From Secrecy to Pride
In this article, I discuss how the kink identity is constructed in a society where kink is defined as non-normative and stigmatised. I do this through an af- fective reading of my research material: autobiographical writings by kinky identified individuals. By looking at the affects, I have been able to recognize those elements that are integral to the kink experience. Affective states, such as fear of being found out, frustration, loneliness, ho…
