On Saturday 3rd June, I was invited onto a panel to speak about my work at Unit London with the wonderful Hettie Judah, curator of Naissance Renaissance - a fabulous two part online exhibition about (m)otherhood and art.
It was such a stimulating morning, alongside two incredible women artists - Asia Werbel and Elsa James. Our works and words seemed to balance each other beautifully, brought out by Hettie's thoughtful questioning, and our audience was so engaged and kind.
I spoke about my "Infertile Platitudes of Embodied Emptiness" series in relation to (m)otherhood and grief, as well as my new PhD research on (In)fertility, drawing more closely on language and its position on a maternal spectrum.
Thank you so much to Kelsey Corbett for organising this event and for all her amazing work on the exhibition. Thank you to Unit London for hosting. Thanks to Charlie Palmer for the primary photo.
