Reflections from a creative workshop at Birkbeck, University of London, on 8th May 2025, by Dr. Olivia Sheringham and Rebekka Hölzle titled “(Re)thinking with care: ethics, aesthetics, practice”. What are the relationships between care and creativity; between care and power? What is care, what are its limits? (Why) should we be thinking about care in the contemporary moment? It seems that care is everywhere, but where does it begin and end? Does this omnipresence mean it is no longer a useful concept? Should we still be thinking about care – and if so, why?
