Broken Bodies

​Three sound art works, part of the Broken Bodies exhibition at the Plimsoll Gallery, Hobart, 2017. The exhibition is a based-on research led by Dr Jennifer Ayton from the University of Tasmania (UTAS) School of Medicine-Public Health, and her desire to return the research to the community in a very different way.

This is a collaboration with the School of Creative Arts, The Plimsoll Gallery, local and interstate artists, the Institute for the Study of Social Change and School of Social Sciences.
​

The Broken Bodies project reinterprets over 120 Tasmanian mothers narratives collected as part of the TAS Infant Feeding Study (2012) into expressive art forms each responding to the women’s powerful experiences and sense of loss around feeding their babies.
