Feed is an collaborative project which promotes inclusive, sustainable approaches to infant feeding and public space. Working with cultural venues, public health teams, artists and communities, we want to create opportunities for people to share their experiences and to expand understandings of human milk and mothering.

Launched in summer 2022, the project has included a public event at Whitworth Gallery, Manchester, and the creation of a multimedia feeding chair, which has been hosted by the Whitworth and exhibited at Lethaby Gallery, London, and the Lancashire Science Festival. We have also produced two limited edition publications, which include artworks and essays about public space, gender and human milk.
