Motherhood Takes Place 


Motherhood Takes Place is an international mother-artist project led by the choreographers Danielle Gallia-Kind and Merav Dagan in collaboration with Kelim Choreography Center and Het Verbond, Frascati Theater. It seeks to foster maternal knowledge through artistic expression and collaboration among mother-artists. 

The maternal body is a repository of unique, often underappreciated knowledge, and is seen as a potential model for rethinking economic, social, and political structures. The project underscores that this maternal wisdom, typically overlooked in mainstream discourses, is vital for crafting a more inclusive, less violent world.

Central to this is the concept of a “place of no-production,” a space where mother-artists can rest, reflect, and cultivate their creative and maternal insights without the pressure of output. Emphasizing the importance of creating a nurturing space for artistic and maternal growth.
