Motherhood is not a career break - not even in the art world. We at kunst+kind berlin are fighting for visibility, recognition and real equal opportunities for artists who do care work. Mothers are the pillars of this society, but they are systematically marginalized: unpaid work, lack of security, poverty in old age. The same applies to art: those who care are marginalized. We say an end to this. We demand a fair cultural policy that recognizes motherhood not as an obstacle, but as part of artistic practice.
