Over the past two decades, there has been an increase in the number of people attempting to cross the liquid border of the central Mediterranean, considered one of the most dangerous in the world in terms of disappearances and deaths. Among those who manage to survive and reach Italy are many who apply for international protection. This procedure requires the applicant to tell in front of a member of the territorial commission his or her story and the reasons that led him or her to undertake the journey. In a context where the credibility of migrant’s words is constantly questioned, lawyers assisting applicants may advise them to undergo a medico-legal assessment. This examination certifies the compatibility of marks on the body with accounts of violence suffered in the country of origin and those of transit. Based on fieldwork conducted between 2023 and 2024 in an outpatient clinic in Sicily for migrants who are survivors of torture and intentional violence, this section of the project explores how medico-legal examinations go beyond the mere certification of physical marks. These marks function as a material substrate for the co-construction of individual and collective narratives between migrants and the multidisciplinary team.
