Mother Mountain, is an experimental performance lecture and text-based installation
examining filipinx diaspora language, cultural heritage and domestic labour. Based on a
folklore tale of a mother who transforms into a mountain this experimental work
transcribes the experiences of motherhood disconnected from its historical body in Visayan,
Tagalog and English. Written by Rayleen Forester and performed by multidisciplinary artist,
Jennifer Trijo (SA) this work touches on cultural embodiment, hereditary responsibility, and
our nuanced relationship with colonised lands.
