Chel Negus
The theme 'motherhood' is often looked at with rose-tinted glasses. I wanted to give this notion a reality-check. Not to shock, but to encompass the role of a mother as a whole. There are the joyful, serene, affirming moments. But there's lot of pain, anxiety, stress and work too! I feel acknowledging all of these important parts of motherhood, rather than sweeping them under the carpet, gives value to the role of the mother. Through my series I photographed various paraphernalia that will be very familiar to mothers. Each object stands as a symbol of some part of a mother's experience or role, through pregnancy, birth and then caring for a baby in the early months of life.
