Milkyways is a collection of essays by artist Camille Henrot,
exploring the ambivalence of motherhood and the process of creation
in both art-making and life. Each chapter delivers a cosmos of
references in literature, cartoons, art history, psychoanalysis,
and more - from ancient maternity myths to modern maternity wards;
from Marcel Proust to Maggie Nelson to Hélène Cixous. Alongside
illustrations of the artist’s work in painting, drawing, and
sculpture, Henrot’s perspectives in writing oscillate freely
between the personal and the societal, the obvious and the more
complex, the visceral and the utterly mundane. Milkyways was
originally conceived for Republik magazine on invitation by Antje
Stahl. Written with Jacob Bromberg, Antje Stahl, and Léa Trudel.
