Mother is a Universe is a concept born from an ongoing collaboration between me and artist mother Raquel Mullins, whose practices have become immersed in the miraculous transformations and bodily+spiritual rites of passage that accompany pregnancy, birth, and motherhood.
This open call invites artists whose work connects with the sensual, earthly, spiritual, and instinctual dimensions of mothering. We are seeking works that explore the altered states of consciousness that can accompany becoming a mother; the paradox of becoming two while witnessing another life emerge into its own individuality; the invisible forces that shape growth, attachment, memory, nourishment, and transformation. We welcome work that reflects on motherhood not simply as identity or caregiving, but as an ancient rite and a profound experience that reveals the body as landscape, vessel, threshold, and cosmos.
Mother is a Universe speaks to the mysteries of how we are held, how unseen forces guide our becoming, and the tender, fleeting memory of infancy - when every sensation is new and survival is tethered to love itself. It is an exhibition about nourishment and becoming, intimacy and immensity, the infinitely small moments that gesture toward the infinitely vast.
