I cannot hold my baby at the same time as I write.
And so I write while he sleeps.
It was past your bed time but we stayed up late marries the work/life divide. Through a series of collaborative drawings and objects the dual roles of mother and artist are celebrated in all their chaos and complexity. Mother and child present a playful, yet carefully considered experiment in materiality, chance, composition, and compromise.
Motherhood is collaboration: a shifting, plucking and pulling forward of compatible element, with information and support feeding not one, but both ways. Rebekah and Selva Rasmussen's drawings plainly hold the complex beauty of this relationship at their surface. Their marks, placed together, buoy one another. Simultaneously compatible, yet clashing; presented with care, and equal importance.
