Join us for a performance illustrating the communities of care specific to motherhood in partnership with exhibiting artist, Margaret Hull, and Madison “Mama Bird” Hendry. In celebration of World Breastfeeding Week, an intergenerational group of mothers will dress in Hull’s specially designed Zero Waste Blouse which offers its wearer the option of modesty while breastfeeding. Each performer will secure the blouse of the mother beside them, covering and protecting their chest or breastfeeding child from view, ultimately creating an unbroken circle of mothers supporting each other.
Reimagining postpartum and maternity apparel, Hull presents a multimedia exhibition focused on sustainable fashion practices. Featuring Hull’s Zero Waste Blouse, this exhibition explores the connections between creating sustainable and functional garments and developing networks of support in motherhood. Zero Waste Mothering will be on view at The Sculpture Center through August 24, 2024.
Following the performance, a reflection discussion with the artist, Madison Hendry and performers will take place at 11:15 AM.
