| Summary: | 'Hope' is the fruit of a collaboration between the artist Sarah Hildebrand and three social anthropologists from the University of Berne. Shunning sensationalist reportage, 'Hope', with its compelling photographs and texts, follows the trail of people who transgress borders so as to achieve a desired goal, to have a child, be to able to prolong their life or to have an autonomous existence. The authors report sensitively on the hope for a child through the reproductive work of a foreign woman, on waiting to get on a list for a donated organ. They also follow up on the hopes of refugees lost on the high seas or dashed on Europe's shores. |
