Caring for Images, Looking at Care Exploring Images of Care
How do we see, document, and respectfully represent acts of care that tend to
be made invisible, despite their central role in the maintenance of healthy
social relations, and indeed of society at large? This workshop proposes to
explore the space of care, a space centrally related to human vulnerability
and dependence, and to focus on the intersection of care in its broadest sense
with images, vision and visuality (Pieta and Sokolovsky 2021). Inspired by
the work of and framed around a conversation with Barbara Piet and Paolo
Favero, the two founders of the Images of Care Collective, this workshop is
an invitation to think collectively about how multimodality whether
photographs, film, or other audiovisual media can help us access, document,
and understand acts of care that are often overlooked. How can multimodal
approaches challenge existing representations of care and help us reimagine
the ways we engage with vulnerability and power in care relations?

This targeted, hands-on workshop will engage with selected early-career
researchers work on care and help them develop their projects. If you have a
project (concluded or ongoing) that addresses (some of) the questions raised
above, we would love to read more about it! To join us for the workshop, hand
in your proposal through the application form. This is a great opportunity to
share your thoughts and experiences and get constructive feedback from experts
