The series 'Sehnzucht' (2015-2016) is based on the artist’s personal experience of becoming a mother; on the contradictory nature of the event and the conflicting emotions it creates — the awe at the incredible ’once in a lifetime’ beauty of motherhood mixed with feelings of daunting powerlessness and isolation. We live in a time where women increasingly feel a great deal of stress— both self-imposed and external — to juggle all life roles perfectly: mother, artist, professional, companion. Gjaltema’s work reflects on this phenomena in a series of enlarged sx 70 polaroids showing her direct surroundings, her home and her small son. Nominated in 2016 for the Fine Art Photography Award, Fine Art Category
