A large three-headed, bunny-shaped cuddle cloth Where’s Your Head At exists in dialogue with The Bad Mother (1997), a lithograph by Louise Bourgeois in which a three-headed mother stands with a milk dripping breast while a little girl clings to her leg. Created 8 months into the artist’s own journey of mothering and at the end of her maternity leave, the work reflects on a three-headed existence: career, economic security, and family life. It speaks to the first months of breastfeeding, getting to know a new baby, and the challenge of focusing on just one task: mothering.

As an adaptive measure the bunny has grown three heads. No arms, no legs.They grew out as the brain expanded in care of other(s), as the capacity to think, to hold multiple identities at once, stretched beyond its original form.The heads might be one in the present, one in the past, and one in the future.Or Maybe. One head lives from artistic ambition, another tends to the daily needs of a tiny being, and the third keeps things afloat through the mundanity of a side job.

This work was created under the frame of the Exhibition "Einsame Eltern" "Lonely Parents" curated by Alisa Tretau & Renata Müller-Tiburtius . Exhibition and zine release on the compatibility of art and parenting.
