Podcast
A World of One’s Own: Natural Woman — Patricia Piccinini
Natural Woman: A conversation with Patricia Piccinini
How do we use work to explore ideas of motherhood and morality?
Tai and Patricia discuss what it means to be a mother and continue a successful art practice. They talk about issues of postnatal depression and anxiety, partners and family life. They also talk about owning and celebrating your fecundity and creating ‘finely crafted love letters’ to your audience with your work.
