Abstract :
[en] This paper intend to present the results of the state of emergency project. The project started in 2014 with a simple question: how researchers that work in immigration can communicate with civil society outside the traditional academic channels? It is not only a matter of popularization of academic research, but mainly brings researchers into society, far from the academic walls. The answer to this question was the art and the spaces of culture. Art, and also cultural spaces have enormous potential, its could bring together different social groups and help researchers to be in society, and making their research accessible. In the society, debates on immigration are mostly dominated by media and political representations, what is also polarizing societies between solidarity and anti-immigration movement's. Therefore, the presence of researchers to discuss the immigration issue in society has become urgent. The state of emergency project had as bases the research: “The borders of Nord-Pas-de-Calais” (2014), and brought together different artistic disciplines, in a co-construction aproach. The project started from the assumption that art is a collective production, but artistic cretion started with the individual consciousness on the issue the artist is focusing. It was adopted the artistic improvisation method to develop a spectacle and other tolls and ethnography tolls (as fieldwork and observation), in order to limit the power relations on the both sides. The project took two years to be concluded. The result was an dance performace, “Dites a ma mère que je suis la”, and a hybrid form of workshop that mixes the artistic and the methods of immigration research. I contrast, I developed during the project an ethnography whit the artists. Where the main objective was to understand which impact of research tolls and knowledge on the issue could produce in artist's way to see immigration, and how this new approach could change the researcher and artist productions.
