This is the 4th Symbiosis exhibition organised by the London Alternative Photography Collective Symbiosis: Liquid examines liquid as both subject matter and process relating to ecology and alternative photography processes, which often requires liquid in its process. Themes could include rising tides, links to the body's use of water, specific relationships to a body of water, etc.

 

‘Symbiosis’ is an evolving collection of works by members of the London Alternative Photography Collective, exploring the relationship between image makers, the more-than-human, and alternative photographic processes.

What does it mean to be in relationship with a landscape or a plant for extended periods of time – to witness the interplay between individual species within their ecosystems? What is the role of artistic testimony when witnessing symbiosis within these relationships?

Whether by process or theme, this collection of works documents interspecies relationships – including those between humans and non-humans. Photographic and momentary, they are mid-relationship – we can only guess the before and after.

This collective brings together artists from diverse disciplines working together, exchanging ideas and techniques related to sustainable practices. 

This exhibition considers those connections between symbiosis and alternative photography, and asks if nature is a collaborator or a commodity in alternative photography processes.

How do we bear witness to symbiotic relationships between different species, alongside our responsibility to acknowledge that the true definition of symbiosis is both parasitic and mutualistic? Much like alternative photographic processes, balance and equilibrium are essential to symbiosis.
