Mother and Baby is an exploration of nurturing as architecture. This soft sculpture made from hand dyed cheesecloth traces the precise and intimate moment when a mother shifts from uncertainty to knowing everything she needs to care for and protect her baby is already within her. It's the moment when her body and instinct align, forming a complete, self-sufficient world around her newborn. Here, the Mother's braid wraps them in a loop of nurturing, protection and abundance.
