Artist Statement
My work challenges the very nature of the concept of belonging, roots, the necessity of being part of something bigger, a family, a tribe, a community, etc. I take this basic instinct as a main poetic driving force, I am on a quest of reestablishing (lost) connections between people. Strongly influenced by the socially engaged and feminist art practices, I usually work directly with the context and collaborate with concrete people in form of interview, collective music making, improvised theatre. Having gathered this material, I create embodied experiences (performance art pieces), often using sound and participative practices in public spaces. In the performance <span>CÁRITAS</span>, me (still childless, choosing then to be childfree) and my childless 70-yearold friend are in a barn with young cows raised for meat only. The piece is a reflection on what is female body if not used for reproduction, how does the maternity of our beings manifest itself.

Curatorial Statement
<p><em>New Maternalisms Redux</em> is the third and last in the <em>New Maternalisms</em> exhibition series (following Toronto 2012 and Santiago 2014). It features five artists drawn from the first two exhibitions: Lenka Clayton, Jess Dobkin, Alejandra Herrera, Courtney Kessel, & Jill Miller. The work of these artists represents a spectrum of experience; it includes queer and straight identified mothers, single and partnered mothers, mothers of differently abled children, mothers of twins and singletons, and a represents range of race/class/economic privilege. This range of positionalities inflects the performance and project-based work presented here -- work that investigates the maternal iteratively, as a political and affective force. Considered individually and together, these works engage with one another and the public, drawing the community into important conversations around what it means to mother, as a non-reductive, thinking-feeling and political practice, today.</p>
<p><em>A three-day colloquium, <a href="http://www.newmaternalisms.com/colloquium-overview/">Mapping the Maternal: Art, Ethics, and the Anthropocene</a>, is being held in conjunction with the exhibition, with participants drawn from the most prominent voices on feminist art and the maternal today. The keynote presentation is being delivered by internationally recognized feminist theorist and art historian, Dr. Griselda Pollock. This colloquium, open to the public, brings crucial thinking on the anthropocene and anthropogenic climate change together with thinking on the maternal as metaphor, practice, and politics. </em><em>Accompanying the exhibition there will be a film screening at Edmonton’s <a href="http://www.metrocinema.org/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Metro Cinema at the Garneau Theater</a> (3:30 pm on May 13th). The screening features two shorts, <a href="http://sheenawilson.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sheena Wilson’s</a> PetroMama and <a href="http://ginamiller.ca/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gina Miller’s</a> Family Tissues, and a full-length screening of <a href="http://www.artistparentindex.com/items/show/295" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Irene Lusztig’s </a>award-winning <a href="http://motherhoodarchives.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Motherhood Archives</a>.<br /></em></p>

Curatorial Statement
<div><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> is a multi-pronged project conceived of by art historian, curator, and conceptual and performance artist </span><a href="http://www.artdesign.ualberta.ca/Faculty_and_Staff/Faculty/Natalie_Loveless.aspx" target="_blank"><span>Natalie S. Loveless</span></a><span> in 2010. It consists of three curated exhibitions (</span><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> in 2012, held at the </span><a href="http://www.mercerunion.org/" target="_blank"><span>Mercer Union</span></a><span>; </span><span>New Maternalisms Chile</span><span> in 2014, co-curated with</span><a href="http://www.artes.uchile.cl/noticias/40662/soledad-novoa-la-mujer-a-la-que-hay-que-tratar-con-cuidado" target="_blank"><span>Soledad Novoa</span></a><span>, and held concurrently at the </span><a href="http://www.mac.uchile.cl/" target="_blank"><span>Museo de Arte Contemporáneo </span></a><span> and the </span><a href="http://www.mnba.cl/617/w3-channel.html" target="_blank"><span>Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts</span></a><span> in Santiago de Chile; and </span><span>New Maternalisms Redux </span><span>in 2016, held at the University of Alberta’s </span><a href="http://www.artdesign.ualberta.ca/fab_gallery.aspx" target="_blank"><span>FAB Gallery</span></a><span>), satellite events surrounding these (most notably the colloquium </span><span>Mapping the Maternal: Art, Ethics, and the Anthropocene, </span><span>co-organized with </span><a href="http://sheenawilson.ca/" target="_blank"><span>Dr. Sheena Wilson</span></a><span>), an individual three-year artistic research project, </span><a href="http://www.maternalecologies.ca/" target="_blank"><span>Maternal Ecologies</span></a><span>, </span><span>and publications (both catalogues and critical writings).</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>The first <em>New Maternalisms</em> exhibition asked: Forty years after the intervention of feminist art, what is the experience of the daughters of that era who have become mothers? </span><span>What are the discursive and material differences between early maternal artworks of the 1970s and those being produced in the first two decades of the 21st century? How might a return to the discourses that shaped the birth of feminist art help reshape how to think about the contours of political and activist art in today's cultural climate? </span><span>Grounded in these questions, this exhibition brought together a group of artist who use performance to bring attention to the embodied, biological, and material enmeshment of early maternal practice in the context of feminist art theory and practice today.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>This second iteration of </span><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> was a co-curation with the Chilean curator Soledad Novoa. It brought together North American and European artist (curated by Loveless) with Chilean artists (curated by Novoa) to stage an international conversation on the status of the maternal in contemporary art. These works reflect the expressed need of many artists to find creative ways to integrate their practices as mothers, artists, curators, writers and teachers. By taking seriously the need to create from local conditions and materials, these practices give visibility and value to motherhood </span><span>in</span><span> art and </span><span>as</span><span> art.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>New Maternalisms Redux</span><span> is the third and last in the </span><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> exhibition series (following Toronto 2012 and Santiago 2014). These exhibitions feature performance and project-based artists working with the maternal as a contemporary political and affective force. </span><span>New Maternalisms Redux</span><span> features five artists culled from the first two exhibitions, each of whom have been investigating the maternal, iteratively, for years. A three-day colloquium, </span><a href="http://newmaternalisms.squarespace.com/colloquium" target="_blank"><span>Mapping the Maternal: Art, Ethics, and the Anthropocene</span></a><span>, will be held in conjunction with the exhibition and include a number of prominent voices on feminist art and the maternal today (including Mary Kelly and Dr. Griselda Pollock as keynote participants).

Curatorial Statement
<div><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> is a multi-pronged project conceived of by art historian, curator, and conceptual and performance artist </span><a href="http://www.artdesign.ualberta.ca/Faculty_and_Staff/Faculty/Natalie_Loveless.aspx" target="_blank"><span>Natalie S. Loveless</span></a><span> in 2010. It consists of three curated exhibitions (</span><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> in 2012, held at the </span><a href="http://www.mercerunion.org/" target="_blank"><span>Mercer Union</span></a><span>; </span><span>New Maternalisms Chile</span><span> in 2014, co-curated with</span><a href="http://www.artes.uchile.cl/noticias/40662/soledad-novoa-la-mujer-a-la-que-hay-que-tratar-con-cuidado" target="_blank"><span>Soledad Novoa</span></a><span>, and held concurrently at the </span><a href="http://www.mac.uchile.cl/" target="_blank"><span>Museo de Arte Contemporáneo </span></a><span> and the </span><a href="http://www.mnba.cl/617/w3-channel.html" target="_blank"><span>Chilean National Museum of Fine Arts</span></a><span> in Santiago de Chile; and </span><span>New Maternalisms Redux </span><span>in 2016, held at the University of Alberta’s </span><a href="http://www.artdesign.ualberta.ca/fab_gallery.aspx" target="_blank"><span>FAB Gallery</span></a><span>), satellite events surrounding these (most notably the colloquium </span><span>Mapping the Maternal: Art, Ethics, and the Anthropocene, </span><span>co-organized with </span><a href="http://sheenawilson.ca/" target="_blank"><span>Dr. Sheena Wilson</span></a><span>), an individual three-year artistic research project, </span><a href="http://www.maternalecologies.ca/" target="_blank"><span>Maternal Ecologies</span></a><span>, </span><span>and publications (both catalogues and critical writings).</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>The first <em>New Maternalisms</em> exhibition asked: Forty years after the intervention of feminist art, what is the experience of the daughters of that era who have become mothers? </span><span>What are the discursive and material differences between early maternal artworks of the 1970s and those being produced in the first two decades of the 21st century? How might a return to the discourses that shaped the birth of feminist art help reshape how to think about the contours of political and activist art in today's cultural climate? </span><span>Grounded in these questions, this exhibition brought together a group of artist who use performance to bring attention to the embodied, biological, and material enmeshment of early maternal practice in the context of feminist art theory and practice today.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>This second iteration of </span><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> was a co-curation with the Chilean curator Soledad Novoa. It brought together North American and European artist (curated by Loveless) with Chilean artists (curated by Novoa) to stage an international conversation on the status of the maternal in contemporary art. These works reflect the expressed need of many artists to find creative ways to integrate their practices as mothers, artists, curators, writers and teachers. By taking seriously the need to create from local conditions and materials, these practices give visibility and value to motherhood </span><span>in</span><span> art and </span><span>as</span><span> art.</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div><span>New Maternalisms Redux</span><span> is the third and last in the </span><span>New Maternalisms</span><span> exhibition series (following Toronto 2012 and Santiago 2014). These exhibitions feature performance and project-based artists working with the maternal as a contemporary political and affective force. </span><span>New Maternalisms Redux</span><span> features five artists culled from the first two exhibitions, each of whom have been investigating the maternal, iteratively, for years. A three-day colloquium, </span><a href="http://newmaternalisms.squarespace.com/colloquium" target="_blank"><span>Mapping the Maternal: Art, Ethics, and the Anthropocene</span></a><span>, will be held in conjunction with the exhibition and include a number of prominent voices on feminist art and the maternal today (including Mary Kelly and Dr. Griselda Pollock as keynote participants). This colloquium, open to the public, brings crucial thinking on the anthropocene and anthropogenic climate change together with thinking on the maternal as metaphor, practice, and politics.</span></div>

Artist Statement
I make participatory performance projects, including theatre, installations, site-based and walking events. The work is playful and irreverent, and explores the sensory, the landscape, and the ways audiences can create and negotiate meaning. I make performance to address the limitations of language, my fascination with identity politics, and my desire to illuminate and document the performative in daily life. I am currently developing Live Art walking practices around the personal geographies and the intimate (and simultaneously very public) performances associated with parenting.

Curatorial Statement
"Nearly forty years after Mary Kelly’s germinal 1976 exhibition of Post-Partum Document, the work of women artists who explicitly engage with images, processes, and experiences of maternity remains marginalized in the art world. Despite a notable resurgence of attention to the maternal in 21st Century art theory and practice, such work is, more often than not, read inside a discourse of indulgence, sentimentality, and identity rather than as representative of larger concerns with ecological systems, ethics, care, or labor. Complicated Labors investigates this problem, bringing together historical and contemporary work addressing maternal labor to ask questions about the status of feminism — and feminist art — today.
The exhibition will be accompanied by a one-day symposium on February 5, 2014 at UCSC, with a keynote address by foundational feminist artist Mary Kelly. The symposium will create a space for critical interdisciplinary dialogue around issues of maternity, feminism, art-making, and writing, explicitly putting the 1970s in conversation with the current moment and putting writers in conversation with visual artists.
Complicated Labors builds on recent group exhibitions on the topic, including Myrel Chernick’s and Jennie Klein’s 2004 and 2006 Maternal Metaphors and Maternal Metaphors II and Natalie Loveless’s 2010 New Maternalisms. This exhibition addresses recent books such as Andrea Liss’s 2009 Feminist Art and the Maternal, new journals such as Studies in the Maternal, and new collectives such as Broodwork."
