About three years ago I started talking about an idea to make an opera about birth journeys. Traumatic or serene, "natural" or full of intervention, empowered or frightening, these journeys are epic voyages from one world to the next for us and our babies, that deserve reflection and unpacking.
Art is a way of seeing ourselves reflected and making sense of our lives. So it is important that we see ourselves in it.
Look around you - how often do you see your experience of mothering/parenting reflected in the art around you? How often do your little ones see themselves in art? If you're like me, you may answer "not enough" or "not at all".

MotherVoice is the first step on this journey. It's a space without expectation or judgment for those who mother to come together, journal in response to prompts, and turn what you uncover into a lullaby for your child. It will be creative and nurturing and you're invited to come as you are, whatever that looks like for you.
