 >Contemporary Art Toledo and the Toledo Lucas County Public Library bring

 o share immigrant stories.&nbsp\; The oral histories were told by people f
 rom countries across the globe including China\, Mexico\, Burkina Faso\, T
 ibet\, and dozens more.&nbsp\; The artist recorded the stories to create a
  safe environment for immigrants to share their personal experiences. Work
 ing largely through site-specific projects and with degrees in Cultural An
 thropology\, Afghan-American artist Aman Mojadidi's work utilizes an exper
 imental ethnographic approach\, combining qualitative research\, tradition
 al storytelling\, postmodern narrative strategies\, and mixed-media instal
 lations to approach themes such as belonging\, identity politics\, conflic
 t\, artifactual history\, and migration\; intentionally blurring and mergi
 ng the lines between fact and fiction\, documentation and imagination.</p>
