Arts-based interventions for maternal well-being
Supporting mothers to maintain good physical and mental health is a key public health concern because of the long-term social and economic implications for them and their children. Arts and health programmes offer a positive social return on investment and provide healthcare commissioners with lower-cost alternatives to clinical models of care. This systematic review examines published studies that examine the relationship between arts-based acti…

Florence Nightingale (1820-1910) - what does history say about her feminism
Is Florence Nightingale becoming unfashionable? The UK’s largest union UNISON voted to drop the use of Nightingale’s image for their union as she was considered to be unrepresentative of modern nursing. One of those backing the motion is on record as saying, ‘All over Eastern Europe, statues of Lenin are being taken off their pedestals, dismantled and pulled off to be cut up.... It is in the same vein that we must enter the new Millennium, start …
Birth shock! What role might arts engagement have to play in antenatal and postnatal care
This article shares research findings for an Arts and Humanities Research Council project called The Birth Project (grant ref. AH/K003364/1).

It ran experiential art-based groups for mothers and a further group for birthing professionals, each over a twelve-week …
The tyranny of expectations of post-natal delight
This article explores the contested nature of childbirth practices with a historical perspective. The article discusses the modern medical/interventionist model of birth now predominant in the UK and examines the consequences of prevailing norms for women.

Mothers Make Art
This article explores the use of visual methods to explore women’s experience of pregnancy, childbirth and the adjustment to motherhood in a British context; it is particularly interested in thinking about whether visual methods can help deliver new insights into these experiences and what forms these might take. The work is not making universal claims about maternal experience, but rather is interested in the vibrancy, intensity and freshness th…

It has consisted of four projects with older women using visual research methods and participatory approaches to enable women to articulate their experiences of aging and to create alternative images of aging. Complex research processes were utilized. Innovative methods included the use of art elic…

Lisa Appignanesi. Mad, Bad and Sad

Routes to Interiorities
In this article we explore the relationship between feminist art therapy and anthropology. We suggest that there is a series of congruities between a feminist approach to art therapy and strands of contemporary anthropological practice concerned with understanding other people's interior thoughts and the potential of art to make critical interventions. To examine these issues we position feminist art therapy approaches at an interface between exi…
