The Motherhood Project is an ongoing collection of mixed media works exploring the layered experience of motherhood, identity, embodiment, and creative becoming. Each piece emerges from my lived experience as both mother and artist — a practice of returning to myself through texture, ritual, and making. I often think of these works as “containers of devotion.” Since becoming a mother, my relationship to creativity has become deeply cyclical — seasons of closeness and distance, fragmentation and return. These pieces honor the quiet, persistent thread that continues calling me back to the studio, back to the body, back to my own interior world.
The making: This piece is meticulously crafted with layered acrylic washes, iridescent powdered pigment for subtle texture and luminosity, and embroidery on 100% natural ivory silk chiffon. It is framed in a 5×8” bamboo embroidery hoop.
Design Notes:
Hang with a small nail as part of a gallery wall, or rest against a shelf or mantle for a soft, organic presence.
Due to the sheer nature of silk chiffon, slight variations in wall texture and color will subtly show through the fabric. This piece was photographed on a softly textured cream wall for reference.
