About the collective

Six artists · connected by motherhood
Port Townsend, Washington

We met in the tender, disorienting early months of new parenthood—a time when identities shift and creative lives can go quiet. This show is our refusal to let them.

The six of us have continued making work through feedings and nap windows, through exhaustion and wonder, through the profound strangeness of watching a new person become themselves while you become something new too. Our practices look different from one another, but we return again and again to the same terrain: the domestic as a site of meaning, the body as a keeper of time, the self that persists and changes beneath and alongside the role of mother.

We are artists who are also mothers. We are mothers who are also, still, artists. This show is about refusing to choose.
