Über diesen Titel

Monuments to Motherhood is a salon-style podcast series exploring the interconnected themes of motherhood, caregiving, artmaking, and monumentalization. Serving as a companion to artist Molly Gochman’s large-scale installation pieces of the same name, the podcast uses the sculpture series as a springboard for exploration. Much like the work, which celebrates the enduring support of caregivers across generations, host Molly Gochman expands our understanding of intimacy, care, play, and community through conversations with artists, activists, and caregivers.

  • Bonus Episode: Community is a Verb
    Jul 15 2025

    Just before the unveiling of her 15-foot Monuments to Motherhood sculpture near Grand Army Plaza, Molly takes a walk through Prospect Park with Morgan Monaco, President of the Prospect Park Alliance. Together, they reflect on how public parks—and the people who care for them—nurture and sustain the communities they serve.

    Fast forward to Mother’s Day: Molly celebrates the sculpture’s unveiling with friends, family, and community members during a day of activities. A few days later, she returns to the site with her 9-year-old daughter Anra, where they encounter an unexpected guest and share a surprising moment of connection.

    In the first of two bonus episodes, Molly travels to Memphis to unveil the first sculptures of the Monuments to Motherhood series at the newly renamed Medical District Park, formerly the site of a Confederate monument honoring American slave trader Nathan Bedford Forrest. The installation of Molly's sculptures signifies a significant shift in the park's history, transforming it into a space that celebrates the city's caregivers.

    Molly engages in conversation with local leaders, including Attorney Van D. Turner, Jr., and Kirkwood Vangeli, the Program Coordinator at Memphis Medical District Collaborative (MMDC). They discuss the city's history, as well as their personal stories related to caregiving.
