Abstract
ABSTRACT GPS Embroidery is a participatory walking project that responds to the conflation of the ‘good‘ mother with the Romantic English landscape. This commentary considers the politics articulated through walking ‘as a mother‘; exploring GPS as a means to locate the maternal walking artist within maternalised landscapes, give voice to a traditionally silenced subject position, and reposition ongoing Romantic understandings of the singularity of the artist in relation to conceptions of the scribe. Contextualised through their relationship to earlier collaborative feminist practices, I consider GPS Embroideries as a tool with which to redefine ‘selflessness’ in relation to 21st-century mothering and art-making.
