Aperture 107 - Summer 1987

Mothers & Daughters

Exploring what the central mystery of the bond between women and across generations might be, “Mothers & Daughters” marks the first photographic delineation of the emotionally laden, socially explicit relationship between mothers and daughters. The images presented here are ample evidence that, as mothers or as daughters, women are not alone: in passion, conflict, confrontation, and reconciliation; and in the diversity of our life-styles and racial and ethnic identities.
