Abstract

"Motherhood in Retrospect", created using scrap metal sculpture. The artist reflects on the journey of motherhood, emphasizing the lasting impact of love, values, culture, and lessons that mothers impart to their children. The artist notes that these traits seem to be diminishing in the current generation (Gen Z). The artwork explores the deep sense of purpose, fulfillment, and joy that motherhood can bring, despite its challenges and imperfections. The artist also expresses curiosity about the kind of generation will emerge from the current generation of women.
