Themed around Body & Form, this third issue of MILKED is in part a response to the art historical topic of The Female Nude, existing as a reorientation of the historic gaze simply by filtering that gaze through the eyes of the female artist. Our featuring artists explore the physicality of the maternal body, as well as our relationship between our body & our homes, the tension between the nurturing nature & the sexual nature within a mother, material, consumption and much more. This issue will include an Editor’s letter, and 64 pages of artwork by 12 female contemporary artists.

Containing an intentionally curated body of work, conceptually driven, and visually focused, MILKED is a new publication that focuses on the undertones of the maternal figure. Styled like a newspaper, and published like a book, this full color, 8.5” x 14” publication features visual art, photography, installation and writing by international, female artists.

MILKED is an independent, artist-led project initiated & curated by Lee Nowell-Wilson and designed by Darin Michelle. Both artists. Both mothers.
