Maternité

Maternité by Marthe Roussel, Oil on canvas, 2018

Selected for the 2025 London Art Biennale, France. Oil on canvas, 2018. 75x100cm.

Motherhood, in all its complexity, is presented here not as an idealization, but as a raw and powerful reality, marked by endurance and self-sacrifice. Motherhood is thus a reflection on the body, suffering, and the gaze of others, inviting each person to a profound introspection on these universal themes.
