This hallmark piece includes a wall-sized video projection of a running washing machine and clothes-lines from which individual Mother Artist pieces hang, each referencing the title “Interruptions”. Along with the hanging pieces, there is a spoken manifesto and a Mother’s voiced concern playing on a loop. This piece is in its fourth iteration and in the spirit of the original Mother Art which began in the 1970s. Mother Art: Revisited continues with efforts to represent and support mothers’ voices through art. After all, Mothers are Sheroes as well.
