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.

In this final episode, Molly's conversation with transgender rights activist and co-founder of House of Tulip, Mariah Moore, introduces the concept of a possibility model. As they delve deeper into the expansive notion of motherhood and explore what it means to be a biological mother, Molly shares her learnings and musings from the past five episodes, reflecting on how our past, present, and future shape caregiving, and the importance of challenging traditional notions of motherhood and the making of monuments.
