Acts Against the Criminalization of Solidarity
Acts Against the Criminalization of Solidarity
‘A most nourishing and encouraging book’ – McKenzie Wark, author of A Hacker Manifesto
In many places around the world, the freedom to simply care for one another is being attack by the powerful, and acts of solidarity are being made illegal. In a moment of struggle defined by the rollback of the social safety net, the criminalization of migration, and the right-wing clampdown on bodily autonomy, radical networks of care are fighting back.
From volunteer rescue boats in the Mediterranean to underground labs preparing gender-affirming hormones, people are reclaiming the means to care for one another in defiance of a system that devalues and exploits the labor of care.
Against atomized despair, Pirate Care shows that fighting back isn’t only about legal and legislative changes but also about organizing, direct action, and disobedient care.

The Wild
by Lee Chang Ming
These photos were taken during walks in the tropical rainforest of Singapore as part of a larger multimedia project that looks at queerness, the environment, the body, and subjectivity. I used to navigate (and get lost) such jungles while in Singapore’s conscription army, and I have decided to revisit these places. I am interested in deliberate disorientation as an artistic gesture within wild places

The Garden
by Lee Chang Ming
We think of parks as places of rest and leisure, to escape the hustle and bustle of fast-paced city life in Singapore and to seek refuge in nature, but in fact, these gardens are designed and built by humans and not nature. Parks provide the illusion of the natural world: tamed and pruned for human consumption.
Singapore branded itself as a “Garden City” in 1967 and “A City in a Garden” in 1998. As with many aspects of Singaporean society, even plants are not spared from the strict policies and politics. Parks as controlled environments perhaps then present an appropriate metaphor for looking at tensions between nature and man-made, natural and artifice, authenticity and authorship.

Slow Technology Reader
This third volume of a series by Carolyn F. Strauss, Slow Research Lab’s director, looks at what technology and (digital) culture can mean from a Slow perspective. Contributors reimagine technology through feminist, queer, indigenous, and ecological practices. The collected essays explore "soft tech" and human systems, challenging Western technological narratives while drawing inspiration from ancient and indigenous knowledge. Contributors including Silvia Federici, Chus Martinez, and Kader Attia examine how alternative approaches to technology could create more equitable, sustainable futures. Through diverse voices, the anthology proposes a slower, more conscious relationship with technology that aligns with natural systems and human potential.

A Sudden Drop documents the garments Jóhannsson found on the street on the way to his studio in Oslo. Throughout the course of a year, the artist collected assorted sweaters, shoes, shorts, socks, gloves, stockings, bras, and dropped them, arbitrarily, on his parquet studio floor to photograph. The book catalogues 741 collected items photographed individually and arranged to cover full pages or comprising grids of three by three. Jóhannsson creates a sense of calm and order through his consistent compositions and careful arrangements of color. The book invokes questions around belonging, privacy, processes of aging, and collecting. Included is an accompanying pamphlet, Eight and a Half Days, which shows the end of this process, in which Jóhannsson compacts these garments into four wooden baskets and photographs them on the side of the street.

Textile Spaces presents different approaches to using textile as spatial definer and artistic medium. The publication collages images and text, art and architecture, science, philosophy and litterature, process and product, past, present and future. It forms an insight into soft materials' functional and poetic potentials, linking the disciplines through fragments that aim to inspire a further look into the artists' and architects' practices,while simultaneously framing theses textiile visions in a wider context.
