Designing Motherhood | Virtual Tour

Designing Motherhood was on display at the Mütter Museum from May 2021 through May 2022. Although the exhibit is no longer up, you can still enjoy it in this comprehensive virtual tour with our very own curator, Anna Dhody, and Gabriella Nelson from the Maternity Care Coalition!
About the exhibit:
While being born is a universal human experience, the designs that shape it are not. Many remain taboo, rarely considered, and inaccessible to many. Designing Motherhood invites you to consider why and how we have developed designs to facilitate reproductive health, and to ponder the political, economic, and social implications of how we medicalize reproduction.

This exhibition was organized as a collaboration between the Designing Motherhood curatorial team, the Mütter Museum, and thought leaders Maternity Care Coalition, a direct-service organization that ensures families can birth with dignity, parent with autonomy, and raise babies who are healthy, growing, and thriving.

    This is an absolutely wonderful, nuanced, rich exhibit that puts me in awe of the people who traditionally held and still hold knowledge of preventing pregnancy, being pregnant, giving birth, and parenthood. I'm in awe, but simultaneously I'm exhausted by the country I live in and its lack of care and, at times, what seems like outright violence and maliciousness against people who can give birth. Wonderful exhibit. Thank you for posting it!

    Wonderful exhibits, thank you! On day, I've promised I'm going to get to the Mutter Museum! The way that you've handled the Flue Epidemic, and this exhibition is so inspiring. I love the ways you combine artworks as well as the science history into a cohesive whole with sensitivity. Even if the Forceps made me wince a bit!

    So cool! I can immediately love and appreciate almost any work or effort that promotes reexamination of old ideas, and attempts to foster new perspectives. I do have one criticism of the video, I found the messaging very difficult to fully understand. Perhaps this is merely because I’m very much an “outsider” with respect to the subject matter. (I’m a middle-aged, gay, cis-male; it’s safe to say my familiarity with motherhood is entirely peripheral.) Nonetheless, I’m confident in calling myself intellectually astute and an interested party still even after repeated viewings I’m not at all confident in my comprehension of what was said. I’ve little doubt that it was written with great passion and deep understanding of the polysocial dynamics of motherhood, as well as the associated misconceptions, stigmas, disparate viewpoints and their impact on the zeitgeist; but it sounded more like college thesis on a subject I was wholly unfamiliar rather than an enlightening introduction.
