About New Skin

Entry into motherhood is an explosive burst into a new world of chaos. Boundaries between night and day, joy and despair, elation and exhaustion continually fuse. New Skin engages with the physical, emotional and psychological shifts in a ‘new mother’s’ identity. Exploring the domestic space of motherhood along with everyday moments and painful life-events. New Skin re-represents motherhood with new and experimental photography and texts becoming part of the dialogue around what it means to be a mother today.
