It originally comes from the Latin verb regener\u0101re<\/em>, meaning \u2018to bring forth again\u2019. The prefix \u2018re-\u2019 means \u2018again\u2019 and \u2018generation\u2019 means \u201cthe act of producing or bringing into existence.\u201d Participants are invited to present a project which, starting from a traumatic event – caused by human or natural disasters – highlights and describes a regeneration process for a person or a community or an urban space or an ecosystem.<\/p>\n The award grants the winner with the production of the photobook to be published by Artphilein Editions and an exhibition at one of the De Pietri Artphilein Foundation<\/a> spaces in Lugano and in Lenzburg, at Fotofestival Lenzburg 2024.<\/p>\n

\nIn the natural world, regeneration takes place in many different ways. Some plants can regrow from a single part \u2014 like when you plant a chunk of carrot or potato and it sprouts again. Some simple organisms, like the hydra, can regenerate even after being torn apart.<\/p>\n
