CONFINEMENT: films & workshop on Motherhood & the Pandemic

Interdisciplinary artists Ceschi+ Lane invite you to join them in a playful exploration and celebration of motherhood during the pandemic, through film screenings and workshops, introducing their unique practice of costume-based performance. 

Since 2022, their project CONFINEMENT has been exploring how provocative and political ideas around motherhood, childbirth, maternal mental health, isolation, disease, and the body’s relationship to nature, can be embodied through costume, inviting local mothers and birth parents to share their experiences and stories.

Come along to Shoreditch Town Hall for the culmination of this project, which will include premier screenings of the films created with Vicki Thornton, artists Q&A Panel, and a creative materials workshop where you can make your own wearable sculpture.

This event will take place in Shoreditch Town Hall's Front Room as part of the Local Lounge Project. This event is family friendly!

This event is a chance to be creative, connect with other mothers and birth parents as well as academics, artists and local support organisations, with the opportunity to access further workshops online and contribute to the virtual community “patchwork” on Ceschi + Lane’s website.
