What does support look like to you? (2025)

Continuing with the idea that parents, as well as babies, are also ‘new’, I have used the wooden mobile hanger from my own children’s cot to create a mobile for parents. All parents need support in order to provide the multitudinous level of care to a child. This piece is intended to place you in the physical position of a baby looking up at a mobile: in a moment of reflection, what does support look like to you? What support has been extremely helpful? What support have you dreamt of having? Visitors were invited to add their comments to a book sitting on a plinth next to the piece.
