Monuments to Motherhood
Monuments to Motherhood is a salon-style podcast series exploring the interconnected themes of motherhood, caregiving, artmaking, and monumentalization. Serving as a companion to artist Molly Gochman’s large-scale installation pieces of the same name, the podcast uses the sculpture series as a springboard for exploration. Much like the work, which celebrates the enduring support of caregivers across generations, host Molly Gochman expands our understanding of intimacy, care, play, and community through conversations with artists, activists, and caregivers.
Monuments to Motherhood
Episode 1: Men, Men, and More Men
On a stroll through Central Park, Molly Gochman and her friend and fellow artist Eve Biddle observe and discuss the (primarily male) monuments on the Literary Walk and consider what a better kind of monument might be. Molly also shares her personal experiences as a caregiver and discusses the journey that inspired her to create this series.
