How does the womb sound?
Did we feel what our mothers felt?
Are mother and embryo one, or two?

During In Utero we reimagine how the mother’s body, senses and emotions become her child’s, and reflect her surroundings. We want to question the way that women’s bodies are treated by society and explore the implications of denying women bodily autonomy. Sound holds a unique place in our sensory world, as it is created by vibrations that must occur both outside and inside our bodies in order to be perceived, and here we explore the inside-out dynamics of sound in its rawest form. Our external and internal worlds are inseparable, and here we listen to how they bleed in and through one another.

“In Utero is an immersive, almost meditative experience…Clifford and Szabo’s work questions the treatment of the woman’s body and voice in Irish society”
