Lena Henke, The definition of motherhood in our culture is one in which the mother sacrifices herself to the child. She sacrifices herself. Her self is lost. The child becomes the center of her life; the child's needs are placed before her needs, until often, she lives in her child, through her child, placing her spirit in the child's body, until the merging of her self with the child is complete, 2022 | Galerie Thomas Schulte
