Katy Rogers, Protect, Nurture, Fly (PORTRAIT 2024)
Motherhood is so complex, as we navigate what can be, at times, quite conflicting emotions and instincts. At first, we protect them, from the world, from themselves; we are their human shield. Then we nurture and love them; we deep dive into a mutual love & bond like no other. Finally we must let them go and watch them fly, still protecting and nurturing, but from a distance.
