Investigating the potentials of expressing lived maternal experiences, through autoethnographic storytelling by using multidisciplinary practices grounded in clay and ceramics. Utilising its malleability, its material meanings and craft histories. Investigating the potentials and strategies of working as an artistic researcher with other mothering people within healthcare and community spaces, as a resistance to further marginalisation of mothering people, and the healing of individual and collective trauma and maternal disempowerment.
