- 요약In her book Forget Having It All, Amy Westervelt (2018) poignantly sums up the societal pressure a working mother can feel: "We expect women to work like they don't have children, and raise children as if they don't work" (p. 14). As a working mother with two young sons, I couldn't agree more with this sentiment. While I aspire to juggle kids, career, and marriage and maintain some semblance of personal identity, I wonder how we got here and how we might meaningfully resist this conditioned, patriarchal, and deeply internalized pressure on mothers. This dissertation project, MatraSpeak, is an arts-based research (ABR) project that explores mothers and how they speak about success and ambition, and how that connects to their personal identity and career choices. This study utilized surveys from 150 mothers, three focus groups, and in-depth interviews from 40 working mothers in the New York area. The interviews have been transcribed, coded, and analyzed through a feminist theory lens and turned into a full-length ethnodrama. MatraSpeak was performed live on November 14th and 21st where I tracked audience responses via post-play survey and analyzed the results connecting to my research questions. The purpose of this project was to achieve a greater understanding of the experiences of working mothers and to demystify and debunk any illusions or misconceptions surrounding the working mother and her choices, if any. This project explored motherhood- our perceptions of it, the ways we talk about it, the expectations placed on and around it- and how our understanding of motherhood has evolved. This work is pioneering in that it brings motherhood studies-a critical yet often underrepresented area of research-into conversation in the arts through verbatim performance. By engaging with the lived experiences of mothers, this project offers fresh insights into themes of identity, success, and ambition as it relates to motherhood.
