Where people usually throng, there is now a yawning emptiness. Meanwhile, the internet is filling up with countless Zoom conferences. During the break, some wonder from whom they could borrow a dog for a walk… – Images from the pandemic, created in the photography and film workshops of the seminar „#InterAction“.
How do we find images to represent what occupies us all during the lockdown caused by the Covid-19 pandemic – the absence or alteration of our connection on both a personal and societal level? What do indoors and outdoors, distance and closeness, individuality and solidarity mean these days – and how do we sit alone at home and still find ways to connect and develop our own forms of expression for interactivity?
From February 1st to 6th, 2021, young people in the Voluntary Year of Culture in Berlin and Brandenburg undertook the experiment of exploring this topic in a digitally conducted seminar in the parallel workshops „Photography 1: The City as Stage“, „Photography 2: Urban Space Body“ and „Film: Screen Interaction“.
The result is a diverse range of perspectives on ‚#InterAction“ in the form of photographic series and short films, which we will be publishing here gradually. Enjoy!.
