THE BIRTH

HONOURING THE POWER OF WOMEN l 2022

Chelsea Jean Lamm "The Birth" Capsule Collection: Although the birthing process is a very central focus of womanhood and a universal experience to every individual, the motif of a woman giving birth is underrepresented in the arts, deeming it an unspeakable act, that must be concealed. The reason for this lies in the risen patriarchal ideology of femininity, that strives to portray women as powerless and weak. ‘The Birth’ pays tribute to childbirth and honours the power of women.
