Artist Statement
Anna Louise Richardson is an artist and freelance curator investigating rural Australian identity and associated mythologies. Richardson works primarily in charcoal and graphite on cement fibreboard, using a realistic approach, flattened perspective, cut-out shapes and manipulated scale to amplify the subject matter. Her artistic practice reveals ideas of intergenerational exchange, parenthood and signifiers of identity based on her experiences of life in rural Australia living and working on a multi-generation family farm.
The complexities of human relationships with the natural world and the intergenerational qualities of these relationships are driving themes throughout her practice. Richardson's work depicts animals as a recurring motif to examine shared values on the role of animals in culture, commerce and ecology and how these are shaped through different histories, storytelling and imagination.
Richardson shares a studio on the farm with her husband Abdul-Rahman Abdullah– a Malay/Australian Muslim artist whose sculptural practice draws on the narrative capacity of animals to explore the intersection of politics, cultural identity and the natural world. Their two daughters, Aziza and Althea are the seventh generation to grow up on the property.
Richardson holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Curtin University of Technology, Perth and has been a practicing artist since 2014. Primarily a visual artist, since having her first child she has also contracted as a freelance curator working with Australian art institutions, festivals and organisations.
In 2019 Richardson completed Aziza’s Zodiac (2018-19), a 12-panel artwork featuring one animal for every month of a year after the birth of her first daughter. The work, a yearlong project created for an exhibition designed for child audiences reflected Aziza's life, told through the animals around her. This was the start of a new direction for Richardson's practice and serves as a record of her daughter’s personal history on the farm and responds to her own evolving narrative of motherhood in a rural setting.
Her most recent work examines what domestic and familiar objects may tell us about our own histories, presents and futures. She has been drawing objects that reflect household hazards such as rat poison, knives and power cords, highlighting the proximity of danger present in everyday life, particularly those that underline parental worry. These works speak directly to our common sense of anxiety about danger, our collective fear of death, and our innate need to protect the ones we love.

Artist Statement
My most recent body of work utilizes themes relating to body, identity and time, from the perspective of a mother, partner and individual. I am interested in the ways that nurturing and caring for a child translates as occupational labor, and how this makes common cause with the working class by exploring the laborious nature of parenthood. I approach these ideas through various methods, including casting, construction and performance. While the different series in this body of work investigate separate ideas relating to roles of the postpartum body, a shared use of material can be seen throughout. Construction materials such as wooden pallets, 2x4s and scaffolding reference blue collar workforce, while breast milk storage bags and nursing pads suggest the time-consuming and repetitive notions associated with motherhood. The series in this body of work evolves as my role as a caretaker evolves, and aims to question how modern society values parenthood.

Artist Statement
As an artist, conversationalist, mover, and archivist, I use video, sound as well as<br />unconventional and overlooked materials like words, time, relationships and movement as<br />components to create. My work revolves around acknowledging the body as simultaneous site<br />of production, care and labor.<br /><br /><br />While the body of the mother is still only barely tolerated within the contemporary art world, I<br />want to replace this isolation with the idea of sharing community in times of personal struggle.<br />By using "physicality as production" as a methodological principle my work provides glimpses<br />into the maze of enigmas - time precarity, gender roles within the arts, labor relations and the<br />body as a multifaceted vehicle - that I am trying to find a way through and that allows others to<br />share my questions and ask questions with me.<br /><br />Laying bare my experience in the strange, cozy, blurred zone of not being just one, but also not<br />being two the work aims to mirror and encourage an intimate approach to the interdependence<br />of minds and bodies. Embedded in curiosity, open-endedness and exposedness, I very much<br />believe in vulnerability and in art as a means of assemblage and survival in precarious times.<br />Seeing myself and my work as spinning a subtle thread of positive contamination, I want to think<br />of my practice as fostering a constellation in which art is a direct tribute to the spirit of sharing<br />and connection between communities.

About
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We (Cayla Skillin-Brauchle and Danielle C. Wyckoff) have come together to birth </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400;">Reproductive Media</span></i><span style="font-weight: 400;">, a project that focuses on all things family, gender, sex, and reproduction. Iterations of Reproductive Media have included a Mobile Zine Library and performative actions and workshops in which we facilitate discussions on these themes. The Reproductive Media Zine Library’s collection includes dozens of contributors who have produced zines related to these topics, ranging from personal experiences to statistics and facts. Our curatorial vision for this library is inclusive: we encourage individuals to share diverse information, experiences, and interpretations. This collection is an ongoing and ever-growing library.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Part of Reproductive Media’s larger mission is to provide educational and advocacy materials and support. Current resources we have produced as free booklets include ways to advocate for family-friendly* workplaces, suggestions for creating more inclusive educational settings, and other tools to advocate for legislative change such as ones that would support families for medical leave. (*We recognize an inclusive definition of family and remember that people receive love and support from partners, elders, children, siblings, lovers, pets, friends, and more.) </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;"> </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Reproductive Media stems from our shared investment in discussion and because our individual artistic practices utilize conversation and crowdsourcing as a tactic to research and create projects. Wyckoff’s project, “Please Tell Me a Story About Love,” has traveled around the world asking folks to do just that. The project’s open-ended structure situates the artist as listener, hearing and recording stories about all forms of love. Skillin-Brauchle’s “Data Collection” performances seek to create local data sets by interviewing community members in public places. While disparate in their approaches, these projects act as non-judgemental agents, recorders of contemporary experience. Our projects focus on the ‘local,’ whether that be a site or a community, and both projects collect responses that fuel our individual artwork in other material forms.</span></p>
<br />
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We believe that critical discussions require space. Reproductive Media creates such a space, one that is a public yet private forum, to talk about all things family, sex, gender, and reproduction: the choice to parent or not; the experiences of non-binary lives; governmental policy that is restrictive and policy that is protective; the challenges and rewards of parenting; experiences of becoming a parent through adoption, foster care, birth, or other paths; LBGQTIA+ rights; infertility and the emotional, physical and financial implications; miscarriage and fetal loss; birth control; abortion; models of prenatal care and giving birth (medical model and midwifery model); reproductive rights; reproductive privilege based on identity and socio-economics; sex; babies; gender; consent.</span></p>

Artist Statement
<p class="p1">I’ve been a working artist, curator, community activist and teacher for more than 25 years, creating and producing intimate solo performances, large-scale public happenings, socially engaged interventions and performance art workshops and lectures. My practice extends across black boxes and white cubes, art fairs and subway stations, international festivals, and single bathroom stalls. I’ve operated an artist-run newsstand in a vacant subway station kiosk, a soup kitchen for artists, a breast milk tasting bar, and a performance festival hub for kids. I’m forever inspired by the rebel queers, renegade witches, and other dyke moms I run with, and bound to many brilliant artists, activists, spell-casters and healers. <span class="s1">For many years I made performances that drew from my own experiences of trauma and transformation, intimacy and motherhood. More recently, I’ve experienced a shift in my practice, where my attention has turned to wider theoretical questions about the nature of performance itself to </span>ask questions about when, where, how we perform - in theatres and galleries, on social media, and in our everyday lives.</p>

Artist Statement
<p>The pieces in this show were completed during my 2011-12 sabbatical leave from my position as Associate Professor at Eastern Oregon University. During this time I traded in my familiar oil paints in exchange for photos, magazines, scissors, and glue to create a group of collages depicting my infant daughter in a variety of surreal settings. The scenes were created using old doll-maker’s magazines, National Geographic magazines, Italian interior design magazines, and brochures for Canadian provincial parks and Tuscan tourism; combined with my own photos of the baby. The result is a strange world combining illogical spaces and multiple perspectives; alternately magical, disturbing, and beautiful. For me, these landscapes reflect the range of hopes and fears surrounding both childhood and child-rearing.</p>
<p>My work is driven by the technical challenge of piecing together intricate parts to create a cohesive whole. The transitions are never actually flawless, as closer inspection reveals sharp edges and layers of overlapping images from disparate sources. I find poetry in this complex relationship between the whole and the parts; where small pieces of imagery come together to form something altogether different and new. As a mother, I wish for all the complicated facets of society to come together harmoniously for my daughter’s safe passage. The Babyscapes collages render that impossible wish visible.</p>

Artist Statement
<p class="dark">My work marries a functional, aesthetic, and conceptual approach to metal. She works with concepts of adornment to create works that use the body to engage in conversations that draw directly from her personal life.</p>
<p>“I was trained as a jeweler years ago, which brought me to understand the intricacies of creating work that is personal to each person wearing it and expresses parts of their life. The choice to work with precious metals has been because of their inherent strengths and weaknesses. I value silver, both for its culturally relevant quality and for its beauty. I employ copper for its strength and abundance. I am, after all, interested in creating something beautiful and desirable. As I continue to explore these personal narratives through these metals, themes that relate to my life as a mother begin to come through. My initial interest in small, intimate works, is finding a new source of expression that allows me to create intimate pieces that explore the relationships I have to my children.”</p>

Curatorial Statement
<p><em>Artist as Mother as Artist</em> is a co-curated gallery exhibition by Sam Rose and Tracey Kershaw, featuring artworks across the disciplines of video, dance on film, photography, sculpture, drawing, print, and live art and performance documents<em>. </em>Showcasing fourteen local and national artists whose practice is based upon the inseparable relationship between being an artist and mother, all works featured have all been nourished, enabled, influenced and created as a consequence of the artist’s maternal experiences.</p>
<p>Additionally, there will be a series of professional development opportunities and public participatory events that will consider how parenthood can enhance creative thinking. These events will encourage debate and conversation, making the maternal a critical component of artistic discourse.</p>
<p>Artist as Mother as Artist aims to inspire child and parent collaboration and encourage artistic practice amongst mothers, who may feel a conflict between their artistic engagement and their day-to-day caring activities.<br /><br /></p>
<p>Artist as Mother as Artist project is supported by Arts Council England, ncn Lace Market Gallery, My Family Care, Lumen PR, Jazz Hairdressing and Creative Quarter Nottingham.</p>

Artist Statement
<p> I’ve spent the last decade exploring the world of domestic life and family systems. Although I started as a painter, describing the chaotic and contradictory world of parenting seemed to require a multi-layered, eclectic approach, and I have expanded my practice to include collage, installation and photography. Recently, I’ve been drawn into the digital worlds my children inhabit so readily (in part because the subject of ‘screen’ causes so much debate and anxiety in the cultural discourse) and the imagery I’ve found there has been surprisingly inspiring and oddly familiar. One game had a pixelated, modular landscape—touched with moments of surprising, naturalistic beauty—that became an excellent metaphor for my domestic world. I use this imagery layered with realism, as well as a layering of techniques, to develop the idea of parenting and domestic life as a many-layered experience: funny, moving, and labor-intensive.</p>

Artist Statement
<span>I maintain an interdisciplinary studio practice grounded in both traditional and alternative approaches to painting and drawing. My recent work investigates the data visualization of increments over specific time periods. I collect information within an established time constraint and then analyze the data set. Based on the conceptual direction of the project, I incorporate the use of textiles and digital media to visualize the research.<br /><br /> The <em>Year One</em> series is based on one year’s worth of data collected about my daughter’s first year of life. From January 18, 2015 to January 18, 2016, I tracked the times of each nursing session, pumping session, nightly sleep and morning wake-up, daytime nap, diaper, bath, bottle, and solid food acceptance. My initial goal was to create wool blankets based on the graph-like data visualizations, but as a new parent, I simply do not have the time to dedicate to hand-felting and sewing large-scale quilts at this point in my practice. I decided to utilize digital media to create the compositions, so my process began with hand-dyeing samples of wool, scanning the samples and adjusting them into digital files, and then arranging the “tiles” into blanket-like digital compositions. <br /><br /><em>Year One</em> allows me to compare data about my daughter’s growth and development, and also visualizes the absolute time commitment that goes into being a primary caregiver. Every hour of the day with an infant is busy, and with this project, each hour is also accounted for. I can compare my daughter’s first month of life to the last month of her first year, which shows a drastic difference in feeding and sleeping routines. The overall appearance of the compositions is similar to my initial goal of creating handmade wool blankets, but the process is much better suited to my busy, primary caregiving lifestyle.</span>

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.

Artist Statement
<span>Kim Dhillon writes, organizes projects, and makes works </span><span>that explore the legacies of Second Wave feminism and of Conceptualism. </span><span>She is part of the on-going research collaboration Invisible Spaces of </span><span>Parenthood with artist Andrea Francke. In 2010, Dhillon initiated _Crib </span><span>Notes _(2010-ongoing), a series of talks and tours for parents and </span><span>carers with children under 5 at the Whitechapel Gallery, London. She has </span><span>since 2012 led a campaign for changes in policy and infrastructure at </span><span>the Royal College of Art to increase accessibility, support, and </span><span>visibility of parents in the student body and faculty. This research led </span><span>to the publishing of a chapter on “Invisible Care: Care Provision for </span><span>Infants and Children in UK Art Schools” in the forthcoming _We Need to </span><span>Talk About the Family: Essays on Neoliberalism, The Family, and Popular </span><span>Culture _(Cambridge Scholars). She has developed a course module </span><span>"Radical Pragmatics" (2014) for MA level art and design students at the </span><span>RCA to re-imagine the potential of workplace childcare in an art school.</span>
