Hope - Sarah Hildebrand

Amidst a climate of political and economic injustice in Europe, existential uncertainty and increasing isolation, hopeful prospects are distributed unevenly. Taking the human body as their departure point, three explorations shed light on ambivalences of hope in a collaboration between photographer and artist Sarah Hildebrand and social anthropologists and authors Gerhild Perl, Julia Rehsmann, and Veronika Siegl. Through photographs and narratives, they follow traces of people who exceed boundaries - physical, mental, emotional, geographic, moral, and their own - in the hope of something that, for others, is a given: children, longer life, self-determination.
