Mothers Behind Cameras: Mother-Artist, Mother-Child Dyads In Sally Mann’S Immediate Family And Elinor Carucci’S Mother, Hayley A. Pierpont
Scripps Senior Theses
Women, particularly mothers, are often made invisible within narratives of their own family and domestic spaces, despite their role as creators and maintainers of those spaces.

These mythologies come together as part of the oral tradition of the art world, a chronicling of narratives that incites continued interest for future generations.
