Not Ready Not Steady Go!
Not Ready Not Steady GO! Is an ongoing documentation of my journey into Motherhood. The images show my transition from being cared for to becoming the carer - my final days of adolescence and irresponsibility. Missing elements of representation and visibility affected me during my pregnancy. I felt isolated, misunderstood, sometimes unsafe, and drained through sections of my pregnancy. The constant ending of Google searches with, on a black woman, for a black woman, or on black skin left me irritated. The camera allowed me to visually capture the unedited and truthful depiction of a pregnant black woman, the early stages of parenting, and the mental and physical changes that our bodies go through during these stages.
