Cultural narratives and cultural imagery around childbirth in the UK remain dominated by a medicalised framework where the connections between physical, psychological and social dimensions of birth and the consciousness of the birthing woman remain unseen, missing, hidden or lost. This practice-based project, through first-hand interviews will explore the language that those who have experiences of home-birth turn to, as a way of giving expression to experiences of birth-giving, potentially beyond rational consciousness. Through expanded drawing and socially engaged practices, how can a lexicon of birth be developed that is outside the boundaries of dominant Western ideas of the body?

在英国，围绕分娩的文化叙事和文化意象仍然由一个医学化的框架主导，在这个框架中，分娩的生理、心理和社会层面与分娩妇女的意识之间的联系仍然是不可见的、缺失的、隐藏的或丢失的。这个以实践为基础的项目，通过第一手的访谈，将探索那些有家庭分娩经历的人转向的语言，作为表达分娩经历的一种方式，可能超越理性意识。通过扩大绘画和社会参与的实践，如何才能发展出一个超越西方主流身体观念界限的出生词汇？
