WoM.A.N. -
Mother Artists’ Network
We are a collective of creative Mothers
and their children, based in and around Auckland, New Zealand.
Our vision is to
support each other as artistic, creative beings but also as
mothers. Recognising that these two parts of our identity are
intertwined and inseparable, and add richness to each other. We
all craved a place where we could feed our need to be creative
while including our children in the process. Where the children
could witness their mothers doing something they are truly
passionate about and feel included and part of the process
themselves.

We launched the
group in June 2006 and held our first exhibition at the beautiful
Depot Artspace in Devonport. We received such fantastic and
encouraging feedback that it fuelled our vision and kept us
creating. Since then we have held two more successful exhibitions.
There is a third
exhibition coming to the Artspace in May 2009 - MOTHER.SONG.

We also hold life
drawing workshops open to other artists. We take turns to model,
draw and entertain the baby. This gives us space for our own
creativity while raising money for future exhibitions.
Looking back at the
fantastic fun we have had, the lovely friends we have made and the
beautiful creations that have emerged from both mums and children
it seems in a lovely small way we are achieving our dream. And
this is only the beginning...
We hope some of the
joy we have felt is evident in the creations you see.
Enjoy!
