Artist’s Notes

We all have many roles—some are given to us, others are worked for, and some are assumed. My sister assumed the new role of “mother” when she gave birth for the first time in the winter of 2001. Before that, she had been and was my parent’s daughter, as well as my older sister.

Although abstract, this print is a depiction of her. The torso is extremely elongated, while the circle of the womb and the circle of the mother’s face resemble each other. The whole shape of the mother figure resembles the male genitalia, so that all three persons of the family are represented here-- the mother, the father, and the child. The mother grabs her ankles in a celebrative dance. Her body nearly forms a circle, symbolizing life, from one generation to the next.
