@amivitale “I had the privilege of curating these powerful images by women photographers. They were all diverse in perspective and collectively, they made me think about the relationships and bonds between humans and animals.

I usually find them alone, but on this day I met both father and son checking up on their horses. I am looking forward to meeting them hopefully again next spring @zoniazena Peru My twin nieces and nephew are growing up in the countryside. Their relationship with nature becomes more special because they live with it everyday, they are building a unique bond with the animals who become their companions in their adventures, together growing and evolving @jodihilton Boston At a horse market near Sofia, a Romani boy accompanies his family practices horsemanship skills. Horse-breeding and trading is still common in many parts of Bulgaria. Bulgaria has become one of the hardest-hit countries by Covid-19 in the EU @mollyferrill Mexico Covi drinks his milk bottle near the Calakmul Biosphere Reserve in Mexico.

Hey we’re group 14! This is our third takeover and for this one we decided to respond to each other’s photos. Each person picked a photo from the pandemic and the next person had 48 hours to respond with a new photograph before passing it on. We loved seeing other groups try this and it was nice to connect with each other in a new way. 1_ Kiki Streitberger (@kikistreitberger) is a documentary photographer based in London. I love it when nature takes over and when a walk in my own neighbourhood turns into an adventure. 2_ Tahila Mintz (@tahilasnap) is a photographer and interactive media maker based at the Allegany Seneca Reservation and Ithaca, NY. We grew this Cherokee Rainbow Popcorn in our traditional 3 sister garden this past year. The seeds had been passed down from one of our elders. Now he has crossed into the next world and we continue the tradition to grow for our home, community and for future generations to come. #foodSovereignty 3_ Julia Rendleman (@juliarendleman) is a freelance photojournalist based in Richmond, Virginia reporting on human health, poverty, resilience and the environment. A dollar bill hangs at a tree at the African Burial Ground, where enslaved men and women are buried and where would-be slave insurrectionist Gabriel Prosser was executed exactly 220 years before. 4_ Marta Iwanek (@martaiwanek) is a photographer and filmmaker currently based in Toronto, Canada. Trips to look out the window are a daily part of the routine these days.

I live in an off grid cabin in the middle of the woods. 18” of snow fell overnight and I am snowed in. The solar panels are covered. I go out to appreciate the beauty of the daylight waking in the forest. The week of the longest nights I am by candlelight to contract this illumination of our short days. 3_ Marta Iwanek (@martaiwanek) is a photographer and filmmaker currently based in Toronto, Canada. Attempts at making the indoors cozier as winter forces us to spend more time inside the house. 4_ Kiki Streitberger (@kikistreitberger) is a documentary photographer based in London.

Hello, we are group 26 and we are located in Asia and Oceania. Our photographs from this takeover explore multiple themes relating to time of day (and night); how we spend our time during and outside of pandemic lockdowns. This collection of images reflect the change of seasons and emotions; our new dependence on Covid enforced schedules, as well as new found freedoms following periods of restricted life. Images 1-2 Tamara Azizian (@tamara_azizian) in Auckland, New Zealand. To escape the lingering days of uncertainty I found myself seeking out mysterious and dreamy spaces. So as the day melted into night with the sunset I walked witness to the empty fluorescent world that felt magical, quiet and free. Image 3 Sarah Pannell (@sarahpannell) is a documentary photographer based in Melbourne, Australia. Morning in Black Range - a small cottage surrounded by an expansive native garden, 3 hours from Melbourne. Melbourne was subject to one of the world’s strictest and longest city-wide lockdowns during 2020. During this period, I really felt the absence of nature and the feeling of freedom attached to escaping the urban environment. Image 4 Annice Lyn (@annicelyn) is a visual artist, sports and documentary photographer based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I see photography is a tool for change, by capturing the present and preserving the past. Here’s a series of bits and pieces of the daily life of Malaysia, a multicultural country. Of rural and capital sites, these are the spaces we tend to walk past of the people through their resilience to change and surviving through this recession.

Images 1-2 Sarah Pannell (@sarahpannell) is a documentary photographer based in Melbourne, Australia. Rediscovering Gariwerd/The Grampians in November. I’m sharing a collection of images I made over several weeks of emergence from lockdown. Melbourne was subject to one of the world’s strictest and longest city-wide lockdowns during 2020. During this period, I really felt the absence of nature and the feeling of freedom attached to escaping the urban environment. Image 3 Mala Hayati (@dymalahayati) is an Indonesian photographer based in Jakarta, Indonesia. Puncak area in west Java is a popular tourist attraction. Every week tourists from Jakarta and surrounding areas crowded this area. My family and I went there last month. And find this area, which is usually a favorite place of cyclists from Jakarta, empty. Image 4 Samyukta Lakshmi (@samlaks) is a documentary photographer and photojournalist based in Bangalore, India. During the pandemic I started going out on hikes with a small group of friends. It felt like an escape from the current situation. It was nice to get out of the city, get some fresh air, soak up all the nature. I have also been using these hikes to slowly get over my fear of heights one hike at a time.

Mala and her husband both work as freelance photographers and run a small business of teak furniture. Covid 19 affects our business and as a result, Mala’s husband decided to sell betta fish as it turned out that this business could be a source of income. Indeed since the pandemic began, many people in Indonesia keep betta fish to release stress. In this picture, Mala’s son helps his father take care of the fish. Images 3-6 Yen Duong (@duoyen) is a Vietnamese photographer currently based in Saigon, Vietnam. These photographs are a collection of images taken from April until November 2020, mostly at my home in Saigon. I see my studio as a refuge where I resign to calmness and solitude, and where I get to be more of myself than anywhere else. It is reflective of my personal work, which I sense is a big split from my habitual photography practice. Photo-collage seems like the right medium for the time being, since I’m able to use it to perform to a certain extent some complexities and conflicts in my ideas of work and self.
