With the singer Selma Uamusse, actress Marta Félix and writer Susana Moreira Marques. Moderation by Marta Lance
How has the power of motherhood been combined with artistic practice? What mental gymnastics, logistics and sacrifices does a mother have to do in order not to give up her dreams and career? But also what gestures of mutual help and community were created throughout the process of being a mother and an artist? It is necessary to recognize inequalities, greater effort or gender privileges in these processes. But it is also interesting to talk about sons and daughters as one of the most inspiring events, and how this constant transformation echoes in what we do and in the people we become, as they grow up. By the way, we would like to know how children see mothers who dedicate so many hours of their lives to the stages, studios, books, rehearsals, computers. How do they live with this shared love of their mothers? Let's talk about the anxieties and strengths of these singer, actress and writer mothers who approach, in their artistic work, their experience of motherhood, in the exchange of perspectives, paths and answers to the challenging questions of the children.
