The book Endless Reproduction was launched during World Childless Week 2022. It was featured in conversation with Dr Olga Smith at The Photographers’ Gallery, London in November 2022 and in The Guardian in February 2023 – Trying to conceive, a photographic journey in pictures.
The photographs were made during the years I was unsuccessfully trying to get pregnant. When I looked back at the hundreds of images I had been making, I realised there was an unexpected layer of synchronicity with the photographs and my lived experience. The photographs in the book echo the stages in my life; a hopeful beginning and faith in nature, moving through medical interventions and a belief that eventually fades. The photographs start in nature, shift through domestic rooms, and come to rest in a no-man’s land of studio and darkroom interiors.
This image is pages 70/71 in the book and was made with students as Arts University Bournemouth.
