Doing Nothing

Doing Nothing: A Photo Series by Grace Gelder In Collaboration with Natasha Rivett–Carnac

Doing Nothing

In 2015 writer Natasha Rivett–Carnac and her family moved to Bonn, Germany where her husband worked on the Paris Agreement at the United Nations. When Natasha asked me, her friend—and Godmother to her son— to come and support her, neither of us knew the creative project upon which we would embark. Five visits and 18 months later a photographic series emerged: “Doing Nothing”, a collaborative exploration of motherhood in Natasha’s temporary home.
