‘Love Shit’ is about self-determination. Through both documentary photography and text, artist Verena Blok constructs a series of intimate portraits of pregnant individuals. Photographed over a period of two years, these portraits are combined with stories gathered during her work at an abortion clinic in the Netherlands. The book explores the dilemmas surrounding procreation – (un)wanted pregnancy, motherhood, childhood – and ultimately strives to reveal the complexities of womanhood through an honest and unfiltered lens.
