I was one of six panelists to present and show work about my personal experience of baby loss and stillbirth.
Programmed by Hettie Judah, Melanie Stidolph and Sally Butcher, it formed part of the wider programme of public events accompanying the major Hayward touring exhibition, Acts of Creation: On Art and Motherhood, curated by Hettie Judah.
The symposium addressed experiences of (m)otherhood including the struggle to conceive, infertility, being childless not by choice, maternal grief and caring for chronically ill children. You can hear/watch the keynote by Elina Brotherus and panel presentations by myself, Sally Butcher, Jess Fairbrother, Sofie Layton, Yvonne John and Melanie Stidolph. There were also film screenings and q&a with El Morgan, Trish Morrissey, Holly Slingsby. The recording is available to view until 31 October.
