Pause in Transition: The Elderhood Project

Pause in Transition: The Elderhood Project brings together artworks shaped by change, reflection and becoming.

The exhibition grew out of the early thinking behind The Elderhood Project, an ongoing body of work that centres around women in later life and the wisdom carried through lived experience. As that project began to take shape, it became clear that there was a necessary space before Elderhood could be fully claimed or defined. Pause in Transition holds that space.

This is not an exhibition about endings, but about what opens when roles loosen and attention turns elsewhere. A time when care responsibilities change, work falls away, bodies shift, and experience begins to redefine itself.

This exhibition provides a pause, allowing space for re-emergence and value, that is present before it is recognised.

A threshold.
A held moment.
A place where becoming expands.
