The Bricks :: Motherhood, beauty, art

Through the ages, these three words have often been used synonymously.  However, in the midst of nursing pads and showerless days, morning sickness and achy hips…your glow may be forgotten.

Please enjoy these photos on the shape of a mother website.  This is a wonderful project, which reminds all of us of the unique and unrivaled radiance of the body of a mother.  It showcases the truth of the changes that happen in a woman’s body when she opens herself up to give life to another human being.  The project brings to the public a series of stretch marks and bellies and breasts of all shapes, sizes, and nationalities.  What would it be like if mothers saw their bodies as art in motion?  An ever changing canvas, colored by experiences of giving life and receiving it?

You can also find links to other similar photo projects on the site.  Here’s to you, your body, and art!
