Morning Routine in Motherhood

Morning Routine in Motherhood is a one-hour and eight-minute video consisting of the recording of seven mornings. One week, all the same, and yet slightly different. While developing this video, I was processing my morning routine as the primary caregiver to a disabled child and the gendered assumptions, as a female, chosen for me from birth.

Equally, this video is a silent commentary on caregiving, repetition, monotony, and parenting burnout. The pressures of keeping up a time-based, strict, clean, and mistake-free environment are life-altering. Without this morning routine, my child would not survive on her own.
