Description
Why are the best stories about motherhood told in whispers? Frustrated by the Stepford veneer she felt pressured to slap on as a new mother, Alaskan artist Brianna Allen started inviting her friends to share real stories - under the protective cover of anonymity. The result is a collection of 100 true stories from self-identifying mothers, ranging from losing dried belly buttons in the laundry to watching a beloved teenage recover from a sucide attempt. The growing, cross-conintenal community of hilarious and harrowing anthems together remark how motherhood is transcendent. Written and curated between November 2019 and July 2022, Volume I is the first installment of an on-going social art practice embodied through The Momologue Collective.
