The Last Taboo of Motherhood?

12th January to 27th January

Commissioned by Fuel and Warwick University. Exploring the silence around postnatal mental illness through stories.

Immerse yourself in an installation that illuminates a historically overlooked area of women’s health. Brought together by Alison Neighbour’s comforting design, the piece contains three audio plays based on ground-breaking research, written by Courtney Conrad, Bryony Kimmings and Sara Shaarawi, that break the pervasive culture of silence around maternal mental health.

Content note: discusses postnatal mental illness, death and infanticide.

Includes BSL and transcripted versions of audio.
