Feed at Birmingham Design Festival
We are delighted to announce that we will be talking about Feed as part of the fabulous Birmingham Design Festival (6th - 8th June). One of the aims of Feed is to take debates about infant feeding outside of limited discussions about parental responsibility or choice, and look at how, as a society, we can and should support the feeding of infants with human milk. So it's fantastic to be invited to talk about our work within the context of design.
Our talk, on Sat 8th June, will discuss the role of design in shaping attitudes towards breastfeeding in public. Describing the processes involved in creating a public, multimedia feeding chair (available to experience at at Ikon Galley during the festival), we will explore how breastfeeding debates connect to wider issues of visibility, (dis)comfort and whose bodies have the right to take up space.
