Care and Communities Seminar by SEAR
Advertisement
What does care look like in artistic and social practices? How are communities formed — and what role do we play within them?
Care and Communities are two concepts that shape everyday life and artistic and academic practices. The concepts describe spaces of support, belonging, and shared responsibility between different kinds of actors but they also involve imbalances, negotiation, difference, alliances and change. Rather than assuming what care or community should be, this seminar invites us to explore how these ideas take form in different kinds of contexts and for human and more- than human actors.
Join us for Care and Communities, a one-day seminar hosted by the Socially Engaged Art Research group (SEAR) at NTNU. Bringing together artists-researchers across disciplines, the seminar explores how care and community take shape in different contexts — through artistic practices, research perspectives, and shared conversations.

Program highlights include:
— political theatre practices in urban India
