ONE FOR SORROW
video installation
2015
One for Sorrow was a collaborative project with the artist Jo Paul while we were AA2A resident artists at North Hertfordshire College in 2015.
The work investigates how a collaborative artistic practice can traverse the themes of infertility, maternal loss and disenfranchised grief with a particular focus on the imaginary child. We presented the work at the Motherhood and Creative Practice conference at London Southbank University in 2015.
We also contributed a chapter about the project to the book The Maternal in Creative Work: Intergenerational Discussions on Motherhood and Art, edited by Elena Marchevska and Valerie Walkerdine and was published in 2019.
