'Jordmor' is the Norwegian term for ‘birth mother.’ Breaking the word into its parts, jord (soil) and mor(mother) directly translates into ‘Earth-Mother’. I like the image that this conjures, of a body that is carried and borne by an entity that is both woman and land, the two inextricably mixed. The very existence of this word, I would argue, is telling of the ways a body longs for (or is expected to have) a connection to land. In Slice of Life, Sourdough Mother, I contemplate this melding of body and earth through the process of leavening a sourdough with wild yeast. Slices in the pages allow for a zooming-in on bio-like imagery througout the book, as it unfolds in an exploration of filiation and the assumption of purity. Text, printing and handbinding by Gabrielle Paré.

Gabrielle Paré completed her BFA from the University of Alberta (2011), and MFA from the Kunsthøgskolen i Oslo (2017). Her practice is rooted in the bracketed spaces between alienation and embrace, heritage and assimilation. Her practice researches the language of identity, and the meanings that evade a word. PARÉpress is an extension of her practice for text production and publishing
