Mother Moon - The 50 Day Painting Series
Mother Moon is a 50-piece painting series created over 50 days leading up to Mother’s Day.
The works explore motherhood in all its forms: love and loss, fertility and longing, becoming and remembering. Painted one moon each day, the series follows a deliberate emotional and symbolic journey, reflecting the many ways motherhood is experienced and inherited.
Rather than telling a single story, Mother Moon holds space for complexity. Some works honour mothers who are no longer here. Others speak to longing, trust in the body, the transformation of matrescence, and the wisdom of matriarchs and the divine feminine.
The series has previously been shown as a solo exhibition, with original works collected before, during, and after the show. This page presents the full 50-day journey, including works that have since found homes, to honour the integrity of the series as a whole.
Mother Moon unfolds in five chapters. You are invited to move through them slowly, following the arc in which the works were created.
Mothers Who Are No Longer With Us
A tribute to mothers who have passed. These works hold grief, remembrance, and love beyond death — honouring absence, legacy, and the enduring bond between mothers and children across time. This opening chapter begins the series in reflection and ancestral connection.
Longing for Motherhood

Fertility, Trust & the Body
Focused on fertility journeys and reconnecting with the body, these works were created with meditative intention. They centre trust, cyclical awareness, and softness — offering a space that feels supportive rather than clinical.
Motherhood & Matrescence
This chapter explores the transformation of becoming a mother. Identity shifts, protection, overwhelm, devotion, and emotional depth unfold here — reflecting the profound change that matrescence brings.
Matriarchs & the Divine Feminine
The final chapter honours matriarchs, lineage, ancestral wisdom, and the divine feminine. These closing works expand motherhood beyond the personal into the collective — celebrating women as holders of families, stories, cycles, and worlds.
