Carried

Krissi Musiol


Carried is an audio walk by performance artist Krissi Musiol.

Participants are invited to listen to a 10-minute narration, whilst carrying a watermelon around a specific location. The watermelon represents the size of the 40-week foetus.

This audio walk invites people to remember being carried or to experience the notion of carrying someone. It is a celebration of motherhood, which makes motherhood visible and maternal experiences heard.

Listen to the audio below or watch the video to find out more.

(Please note that this audio work contains content about pregnancy, birth and maternal experience that some people may find distressing)
