Feed Zine in m(other)ing exhibition
The Feed Zine will be included as part of the m(other)ing exhibition opening at Perspective Gallery at Virginia Tech on 18th March until 16th May 2025.
m(other)ing curators Meaghan Dee and Bree McMahon describe how, oftentimes, work related to motherhood, womb-bearing bodies, and reproductive journeys, does not find a place in design research. This is for a variety of reasons: stigma related to the conversation, mainstream disinterest (or discomfort), and a lack of a clear venue or place for dissemination and discussion. But design has a role in shaping experiences, improving outcomes, and connecting communities.
Visible Bodies at Ikon Gallery, Birmingham
Between June and July 2024, Ikon Gallery in Birmingham will host the Feeding Chair, alongside a residency and series of free workshops by artist Sally Butcher, as part of our Arts Council funded touring programme, supported by Birmingham City Council Public Health and University of Central Lancashire.
During this time, Ikon's resource room will become a feeding and family space, which you are free to explore or relax in, with or without young children.
Working in the space, Sally will respond to Feed’s themes of public space and the reproductive body through the lens of her own art practice about experiences of infertility.
