Designing Motherhood: Things That Make and Break Our Births explores the arc of human reproduction through the lens of art and design. The exhibition demonstrates the evolution of rights and societal norms pertaining to con(tra)ception, pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experiences over the last 150 years, highlighting that birth—and the material culture that surrounds it—impacts every living person. While being born is a universal human experience, the designs that shape it are not. Designing Motherhood invites you to consider why and how we have developed designs to facilitate reproductive health.

We are so honored to be Designing Motherhood’s community partner, and grateful to have “You Were Welcomed With Love,” our video that captures our vision, in the display. This powerful, thoughtfully curated display is on view at MassArt Art Museum. Visit MAAM between June 11 and December 18 to see this MUST-SEE exhibit and let us know what you think.
