On June 26th 2021 an outdoor photo exhibition opened on the market square in Trondheim, Norway. Seven women used the Covid-19 pandemic to learn mobile photography as part of an art project. Through 25 photographs, they raised questions about being next of kin for a family member or a partner.
"Life is an uncertain project for all of us. Sometimes other people need our support. The vast majority of us will be a next of kin during our lifetime. Being next of kin gives a good feeling of fulfilment and meaning, but it can also present challenges and dilemmas", says Lisbeth Lein, participant and partner in the project.
