11 • The Judy Chicago Series: A Conversation with the Artist Judy Chicago

When I was first asked to be a part of this special series of birth art for the Pasadena Museum, I had no idea who Judy Chicago was. I just said "yes" because I'm a birth junkie who wants to see more images of people giving birth to help humanize the experience of childbirth. I was honored to speak with Judy to learn more about her inspirations and process for this special series.  This is a special edition of Big Birth Junkie that coincides with the artwork of Judy Chicago's Birth Project Born Again Series at the Pasadena Museum. I want to thank Sarah Mitchell, Director of Exhibitions, and Leah Clancey, Education & Engagement Coordinator, at the Pasadena Museum of California Art (PMCA) for inviting me into this special project and co-creating it with me. _________ For more information to go: GraceFull or follow us: @gracefullbirth or our guest: @judychicago __________ This episode is sponsored by GraceFull where you can find BBJ's host Elizabeth's free ebook: Birth Planning: All the Questions to Ask and all kinds of educational videos including Childbirth Education, Advanced Doula Trainings and Lactation Support.  If you live in Los Angeles, check out our midwives for home births, water birth, and our accredited birthing center.
