Oxytocin: Collective Care


  • Science Gallery London Great Maze Pond London, England, SE1 United Kingdom (map)

Oxytocin is an interdisciplinary live event about mothers and carers that combines a bold programme of performances with discussion panels and workshops, bridging across midwifery/health services, arts and the lived experiences.

At its third edition, the event aims to create an art, health & community-driven programme to evaluate the effectiveness of Black and Brown, LGBTQIA, and disabled parents’ care, and the cultural sensitivity of primary care providers, administrators, and staff in maternity/health services.

Oxytocin Collective Care is a week-long festival taking place between Middlesex University and the Science Gallery London. It is conceived and curated by Dyana Gravina as part of the Procreate Project, a pioneering art organisation supporting the professional development of contemporary artists who are also (m)others working across disciplines.

Key dates:

  • Saturday 13 May at Middlesex University Campus

  • Tuesday 16 May, Thursday 18 May and Friday 19 May: Weekday workshops are taking place at Science Gallery London

  • Saturday 20 May at the Science Gallery London part of King’s College London Guy’s Campus.
