The Cockroach collective is a group of 45 students infesting the landscape of photography and exploring the possibilities of the medium to go beyond traditional definitions. Our exhibition UNFOLDING TERRITORIES: Co-creating Through Cartographies of Care is expanding the definition of care aiming at the broader understanding of what care means in the contemporary world and how art can be seen as a manifestation and tool of care.
The act of creation is an act of care, creating work is a movement towards an expression of one's honest desire to connect with others. In our exhibition, we would like to share what we care about, in the ever-changing world that surrounds us.
We have been driven to create an exhibition where everyone, the audience and the artists, felt seen and listened to. At our core, we are guided by equality, inclusivity, and respect. The willingness to take care of one another is a representative trait of our time when we all need additional support. These turbulent years are reflected in the ways we create work and the themes we explore. Furthermore, we want to challenge photography and explore it as a means of care to reflect our world today.
With Unfolding Territories: Co-creating Through Cartographies of Care, we create a physical space that carries a proposition. What if creation is an act of care?
You are invited to start a dialogue about what care could mean in society, betting on the idea that art can be truly transformative if it comes from a place of love, respect, and curiosity for the other.
