A collective of mother-artists unite in Het Verbond to stage m/otherhood, to extract valuable old-new knowledge through art

do 4 jul ’24

Throughout the first week of July we open the doors to all who were born and give a sneak peak into motherhood-art with research process, open sessions, political circles and performance art. You can see works that have premiered and works in progress. 

This event will hold space to share maternal practices as they offer an alternative to our world's current order and create art not as escapism but as a contribution to society. Especially now, it’s urgent to look for new perspectives beyond patriarchal destruction. 

Can we combat the loneliness of a young mother and to question the languages surrounding motherhood together? 

Everybody is welcome: fathers, mothers, children of all ages, babies, soon to be parents, uncles, nannies and the willfully without children. Everybody’s presence is of crucial importance to bring hope. 

Save your spot here! 

Intimate setting, limited space.

  • The research week is being artistically documented by Stav Mandelbaum.
