Throughout this Zine we’re revisiting the theme of Motherhood because as an ever-evolving role, concept, state of being there are a multitude of angles and perspectives to explore.There is a whole spectrum of angles and emotions that surround the topic of motherhood. Whether you’ve had children, you’re trying to get pregnant, you can’t have children, you’ve suffered loss or anything in between it can be a beautiful and terrifying experience - it can be the best of times and the absolute worst.
