Nurture exhibition
Curated by Crescent Arts, Nurture shows the art of mothers who have yet to have the opportunity to display work due to their caregiving duties. The exhibition has been developed to accompany the Feeding Chair, which is currently touring the UK, alongside the Floor Flag, an artwork developed by design researcher Sally Sutherland in response to conversations with infant feeding activists, and a soundscape by poet Charlotte Oliver, co-created with Scarborough’s community during workshops last November.
Feeding Chair at Watershed, Bristol
During August 2024, the Feeding Chair will be hosted in Watershed’s café bar, as part of a tour of cultural venues across the UK, funded by Arts Council of England. The chair complements Watershed’s own commitments to access and inclusion, demonstrated through their provision of services and spaces that provide social infrastructure, such as their award-winning toilets, which are open for everyone to use, not just their customers.
