"I used to have a very romantic idea of what childbirth was, constructed from movies and tales. Now I see the raw reality, often far from that ideal."
"In documenting midwife-led home births, I sought to reveal the beauty and brutality of labor, portraying the realities that many distort or overlook."
"The high maternal mortality rates highlight systemic failures, especially for Black women, underlining the importance of recognizing and addressing these disparities in care."
"What I want to convey is not just the pain of childbirth but the strength and overwhelming beauty of the entire process, including all its mundane aspects."
