MOTHERLOAD is an exhibition of over 35 2D and 3D artworks made about motherhood. Art about motherhood is often overlooked or written off as unremarkable or unimportant. The experience and work of motherhood is not one to be taken lightly or disregarded. Art created about this universal experience should be seen and celebrated. The work in this show is made by artists in Central Arkansas who are also mothers. Our work invites you to reconsider the depth and significance of the narrative of motherhood, as told by us, “The Mothers”.
“The Mothers” are: Katie Adkins, Melissa Bacon, Catherine Burton, Margo Duvall, Nancy Dunaway, Amanda Heinbockel Naus, Tammy Harrington, Lana Johnson, Dolores Justus, Lisa Krannichfeld, Deborah Kuster, Hannah May, Jessica Mongeon, Marriane Nolley, Laura Raborn, Cary Smith, Dominique Simmons, Lisa Thorpe, Miranda Young, and Emily Moll Wood.
