Exploring Maternal Identity and Intimacy in the Early Years of Life

Hosted by The Harry Guntrip Trust

With Dr Pauline Lee, Sarah Greaves, Jane Turner and Dr Chris Douglas

This conference will be exploring the relationships between parents and their babies, the impact upon both within the intimacy of the earliest relationships. We will consider how these early intimate relationships can impact on later relationships in both the parent and the infant, growing into an adult themselves.

We will be looking at how art can help make sense of some of the powerful aspects of these early relationships, and how we might make sense of and come to terms with these.
