Everyone is talking about the energy transition, but what is it actually? A transition should be a positive change or development, but will everything really “change for the better”?
The graduates of the Photocentrum’s reportage class, under the guidance of photojournalist Ann-Christine Jansson, have dealt with this question photographically, of what each and every one of us can do to improve the situation. The result is a wide range of reports on urban gardening, the installation of solar panels on balconies, the transition from oil to pellet heating, building with clay, upcycling clothes and activists who have dedicated themselves to the fight for the preservation of our earth. The photos provide inspiration for one’s own actions, but also raise the question: “Does this achieve anything, or do we just soothe our conscience when we put up a solar panel?”
A catalogue will be published to accompany the exhibition.
