Descrizione Opera / Biografia
How does care through photographic practice produce subject position and social relations?
In this work care is understood as an action that implies some kind of engagement.
Care is not a complete action, but is ongoing, it can characterize a single activity or it can describe a process.
Applied to my work, this mean that care is at the base of the encounters I experience and the relational aspects of my photography and also is fundamental in my photographic practice as a whole.
I am interested in photographs and social constructs in which, rather than being just the subject, care is the very premise of the act of photographing.
Care is present in the process.
This photograph is part of a Care Album which I edit in a shared process with family, friends and stranger.
