Artist Statement
<p>I am a mixed media artist, exploring themes of the Maternal, Relationships, Sexual Politics and the Cycle of Life.</p>
<p>I am particularly attracted to Flora's life cycle; I link these to human experience using Anthropomorphism and Pareidolia, these are documented via Photographs & Sculptures, where inspiration from the natural world has become fundamental to my practice.</p>
<p>My sculptures are made from non-traditional materials, based on seeds, their shape & form are often reminiscent of human body parts</p>
<p>Currently my work focuses on pregnancy, motherhood and in particular the dynamics of Mother-Daughter Relationships, Since becoming a Mother myself, I have become obsessed with trying to document 'Moments' & 'Memories', and the 'Essence of my mother', in an attempt to understand the complex relationship that I have with my own mother.</p>

<div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1521640730501_24734"><span id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1521640730501_25484" style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif;">My work comes from a position of ambivalence – more specifically through ambivalent motherhood. My father died when I was a child and my mother before I had my own children. The chain from parent to child to becoming a parent oneself was broken. My work is around the space between these broken links.</span></div>

It provides numerous ways of probing the question: 'who is the container and who is the contained?'. How does the relationship between mother and child stand at any one moment? How does one see oneself - as a mother or as a child? What is the basis of the container at that moment? What is the emotion of the contained? The container can be actual, practical, or explicit. It can be metaphoric, emotional or implicit. Container/contained is a recurring theme in my work as I explore the fluctuating emotions of ambivalence.</span></span></div>

About
MATERNAL FANTASIES is an evolving and interdisciplinary group of international artists and cultural producers based in Berlin, Germany. We (re)connected in 2018 to share experiences and insights into the most marginalised topic within both the art world and feminist discourse: Motherhood.
We join forces to embrace, discuss, elaborate and express contrasting experiences and family stories, memories, fantasies, desires and horror scenarios related to ‘Maternal Fantasies’.
Currently we meet every three-weeks to examine through artistic research, collaborative artworks and lived experience the dynamics between artistic creation and motherhood seeking to shape the discourse of motherhood through our artistic working process.
We are an organic group that produces works in different constellations between the individual group members.
Current group members are: Aino El Solh, Hanne Klaas, Isabell Spengler, Lena Chen, Magdalena Kallenberger, Maicyra Leão, Melanie Schlachter, Mikala Hyldig Dal, Olga Sonja Thorarensen, Sandra Moskova.
