TitlesUntertitelA liminal space to envision the corporeal crisis of motherhood
Description“Unperforming the Mother" is an interdisciplinary investigation into the historical and social construct of the mother role and the phenomenon of crisis from the perspective of mothers, revealing deeply embedded ideals and power structures. Mothers continue to be instrumentalized, exploited, and overused. The physical and psychological consequences are part of their everyday lives and yet invisible to many people. The performance piece "Mother" creates a protected and intimate space for two mothers in which they make stresses and corporeal crises visible through emphatic material, share me-time, and embody the mothering situation.Object numberBBI-2023-C02-001
