Home Birth, 2001
C-Type Photograph

Home Birth
(in the kitchen) and Home Birth (with vacuum cleaner), both produced in 2001, mark the start of Wade’s interest in the subject. In the works, Wade combines video footage from the (hospital) birth of her second son in 2001 with domestic scenes, juxtaposing the drama of the birth experience with detached images of the domestic, alluding to a deadening of emotions sometimes experienced in PND.
