Abstract
‘Labour of Love’ is a visual depiction of the 650 times our baby was fed over three months. There are 650 images of myself and my baby, each representing a feed, each with a hand finished element covering my face. The aim is to highlight the sheer volume of work that is expected of mothers and to challenge people to rethink the value of the time spent. I did live performance where I wrote the number of each feed on each individual piece. Raising a child is seen as a female task, not a real job. Thus unpaid and undervalued. Addressing this and rectifying the situation is the unfinished work of feminism."
