Cartography of Care

Cartography of Care is an exhibition curated in response to the idea of an emotional atlas. It brings together the work of an international group of artist mothers working across a variety of disciplines to explore how we might map the human experience of caregiving. The exhibition considers the relationships between geographies, maps and emotions and traces the physical and interior journeys and landscapes of these artists: Artworks which explore how the experience of care can be physically mapped on the maternal body, in domestic space, in our relationships with ourselves, and in how we care for others in times of crisis.

Spilt Milk Gallery CIC is a social enterprise based in Edinburgh. Our mission is to make motherhoods visible in the arts by supporting the work of artists who identify as mothers, and empowering mothers in our community through accessible, artist-led activity.
