This is an intimate and evocative collection of images depicting the complex interactions and relationship between a mother and her children. Ana Casas Broda's (b. 1965, Spain) desire to have children was intense. She spent five years in fertility treatments before she was able to conceive her son. With the birth of her second son she began exploring motherhood through photography and writing. For Casas Broda having children triggered memories and fears from her own childhood which exacerbated her post-partum depression. Using photography as a form of therapy, she was able to work through these dark periods and come to terms with her past. Focusing on Casas Broda's games with her sons, the photographs depict a series of complex interactions between the children's developing identities and her own profound transformations.
