The topic brought into discussion by the project Dreaming About my Unborn Child is related to the future projection on one's becoming a woman. The unborn child stands symbolically for a confrontation of the self with an "accomplishment" that does not have yet a physical appearance. Understood in a strictly biological sense, or in a broad sense (social, cultural, etc.), this unborn child is the starting point for introspection and self-analysis. Maternal ethics, as feminist Sara Ruddick claims, are not related to procreation, are not conditioned by gender nor by patriarchal system. A mother is not necessarily the one who gives birth, but the one who applies this type of ethics in society, generating the politics of peace. (Sara Ruddick, Maternal Thinking: Toward a Politics of Peace, 1989).
Dreaming About my Unborn Child is a collaborative ongoing project of 13 young artists who, starting with May 2020, faced with the imposed isolation, took the risk of a creative approach that they could only partially control. Each of them initiated a digital work to be modified after that by all other participants one by one. The final works will consist in accumulations of successive, individual interventions, specific to the identity of each artist, which will ultimately define a more general group identity.
