When you hear or read the word CARE…
Do you hear a noun, a verb, an imperative? Do you feel comforted, overwhelmed, or inspired by the sound and meaning of the word Care?
Hera Gallery is interested in how we as artists and as society relate to the concept of care at this moment in time.
From taking care and giving care to self-care, and the call to care – the idea of care runs through all our lives from beginning to end. Human care, animal care, environmental care, or caring for an idea, a faith, a passion, a commitment. Care is associated with cultural connections, age, and gender. How is this shifting? How do we find balance when engaged in caregiving at all levels?
Artists respond to the question:
How does the word Care resonate with you, which images, stories, sentiments does it bring forth in you? Which role does care play in your life as an artist and in your artistic practice?
