Trigger: care

Abstract

Care is everywhere and at the same time society faces a 'care problem'. How do artists and photographers create more caring relationships between humans, technology, and nature, given the challenges? An editorial commitment to care by an international Belgian-Dutch-German team leads to a variety of artistic practices and underrepresented stories. Theoretical text contributions, visual contributions, and experimental, hybrid formats stand side by side. Trigger #3: Care eventually gathers many forms of care through photography and visual art practices. Trigger#3: Care is published in close collaboration with the Biennale für aktuelle Fotografie (Mannheim, Ludwigshafen and Heidelberg) and Iris Sikking (curator of the 2022 edition).
