Faces of moms*: Experience motherhood in diverse images
The traveling photo exhibition Faces of moms* will make various realities of motherhood visible on November 9, 2026, in Neu-Ulm. In the premises of the Catholic Counseling Center for Pregnancy Issues SkF, visitors will encounter 17 photographic portraits by Nicole Noller and Natalie Stanczak.
Portraits beyond idealized role models
The exhibition focuses on specific faces, bodies, and biographies. Documentarian photography shows motherhood not as an abstract ideal but as a personal experience between closeness and exhaustion, connection and overwhelm. Each artwork view provides a nuanced approach to the people behind social attributions.
When invisible care work becomes visible
Central themes include Mental Load, structural inequality, and care work. The photographs combine aesthetic experience with societal reflection and cultural education. They draw attention to responsibilities and burdens that often remain invisible in family life.
Documentary photography as societal dialogue
The exhibition connects portrait photography with a socio-political perspective. Facial expressions, body language, spatial closeness, and photographic presence shape the exhibition atmosphere. The calm presentation invites focused viewing of the works and opens up space for personal perception, exchange, and new perspectives on motherhood.
Exhibition in the anniversary year of the counseling center
On the occasion of the more than 25th anniversary of the Catholic Counseling Center for Pregnancy and Young Families, Faces of moms* will be shown at the counseling center as well as at the Family Center Neu-Ulm. The exhibition is aimed at art enthusiasts, families, professionals, and everyone who wants to engage with role models, family life, and social responsibility.
Conclusion: An impressive art experience in Neu-Ulm
Visitors can expect a contemporary photo exhibition that connects documentary imagery with social analysis and cultural education. Those who want to experience motherhood in its complexity and sustainably broaden their perspective on care work should definitely enjoy this aesthetic experience on-site.
