Et laboratorium for de uidentificerbare og fremmede objekter: Om UFOlabs bidrag til at udforme en adoptionskritisk epistemologi

This article reflects on the artist collective UFOlab: Unidentified Foreign Object Laboratory. During its active period from 2004–2010 the collective was formative in creating a critical adoption epistemology challenging the knowledge regime that underpins transnational adoption. The article suggests that UFOlab politicized transnational adoption through a number of interventions aiming to transform the figure of the adoptee from a passive and infantilized object of knowledge into a critical and political subject.
