Gesture of Care – Translate
To contribute to Anne Dubos’ collection ARCHIVES OF CARE
To Observe
One of the very first gestures of Care : to give one’s attention to something, to a thought, or to someone.
On the morning of 31 December, I took the children to the ridge line to observe the snow-covered summit of Mont Blanc, which can be seen in the distance on a bright blue clear day.
On the way, we found a beetle.
*
For this new year of 2023, besides wishing you all joy, I would like to ask my Crown Sisters to help me to collect gestures of care. Sisters of mine, what would be the gesture of care that you would describe for me, for inclusion in one of the Museum Of Care‘s contributing collections?

We might assume these Rosebushes enthroned at the head of the rows of lined up vines are a way to feed biodiversity and enrich the soil. In fact, a rose planted at the beginning of the vine row alerts La Vigneronne of the appearance of certain diseases in particular the oïdium which is a fungus that develops on the leaves especially when it is hot and humid.
Roses are more sensitive to this disease than vine and is therefore attacked first so that the winegrower, adverted by the visibly sick rose, which is sacrificed to save the future grapes, can treat the vine before it is too late to save the harvest. The Rosebush also serves to avoid unnecessary costly routine treatments.
Someone whose sensitivity to adverse conditions makes them a useful early indicator of such conditions; someone who warns of the coming of greater danger or trouble by a deterioration in its health or welfare.
This is the story of the rose, whose social relevance is its fragility, which sacrifices itself for the vine…
