Onomatopee warmly invites you to the opening of our new exhibition Re-Assembling Motherhood(s), with freshly installed outcomes from the Riso workshop, which will open to the general public. This festive moment invites you to speak with the artists from the MATERNAL FANTASIES collective as well as the participants of the workshop to share elements from their working process.
Composed of seven interdisciplinary artists/mothers and ten children, MATERNAL FANTASIES takes the social invisibility of the maternal experience as a point of departure to produce films, images, and performances of fantastical visibility. Through personal writing exercises and collective performance scores, they align themselves with ancestral figures of feminist discourses and artmaking, in order to establish new vocabularies and narratives around the maternal for future generations.
What's to see? This exhibition shows documentation and video work by the collective in combination with Riso prints collectively produced by participating artists outside of the collective during the two-day workshop at Onomatopee.
Opening hours: Wednesday to Sunday 13.00 -17.00
