At residency in Crossfire base projects I saw the opportunity to start working on a long cherished plan of having conversations with women who having come to the Nederlands from different part of worlds, with different body and maternity care norms and have adopted the very Dutch 'bevalling'.Who have experienced their bodies in the most visceral ways? This resulted into 3 sound pieces: Loss, Trust, Body and a 2 channeled video installation.
I believe cultural norms are inscribed in our bodies - what the body reveals about the culture it inhabits - in this case what a birthing body reveals forms the leitmotiv of this project in progress. More information on this link
