Photo series about Touched out syndrome and motherhood
2021




As part of the residency and exhibition for artist-mothers MAMADETS (Peresvetov Galery, Moscow), a series of photographs was created about the touched-out syndrome. This syndrome manifests as irritability in mothers who spend a lot of time with babys or toddlers, after active tactile contact throughout the days. I asked the residency participants about the place on their body that they most associate with the touched-out syndrome, asked them why specifically that place, and photographed on film their portraits and portraits of these places.
