Mother Me is an interdisciplinary performance involving music, text, movement and film that explores the complex relationships, psychology and sociology surrounding motherhood. The artist untangles her own mother/daughter relationship, grapples with feelings of uncertainty as a childless woman approaching the end of fertility, and asks questions that hold particular significance for a generation in the midst of shifting personal, cultural, societal and biological dynamics.
