Sorry I gave birth I disappeared but now I’m back  • Photo Gallery

In the series, “Sorry I gave birth I disappeared but now I’m back”, Hungarian photographer Andi Galdi Vinko reflects on maternity starting with her own personal experience. Her work combines images

of pregnant women - mostly friends - portraits of their partners with their firstborn, exhausted women in the act of breastfeeding, children in their first years and photographs of transforming female bodies. The aim is to show, as truthfully as possible, the disruptions brought about by the birth of a baby, especially to the life of the mother. The pain experienced during delivery is only a prelude of what awaits a family and particularly a mom.
