Partum

Partum is the second series of Les Baby Blues. Inspired by their own experiences, recent works by Noël seek to deconstruct the difficult, hidden and ambivalent emotions surrounding parenthood through self-portraiture, staging and data processing. While their last series, Nutri, offered a look at the obsession and grief of failing to breastfeed their baby, Partum is an attempt to understand the traumas experienced during childbirth. Working mainly with the digital photographic medium, various destructive interventions on the physical print bring attention to what is unseen, hidden and lost.
