Meeting Mama
Meeting Mama is an evocative photographic exhibition by Australian photographer Averie Cole. The exhibition, held at Loud Lolly’s vibrant space, captivated attendees with its heartfelt celebration of motherhood.
The exhibition reveals a collection of raw and intimate portraits that strip away the polished family photos we so often see—and take ourselves—instead offering a glimpse into the reality of motherhood. While deeply joyful and rewarding, motherhood can also be isolating and filled with struggle.
Photographed over eight years, Meeting Mama captures the love, exhaustion, vulnerability, and strength that exist side by side, revealing mothers as they truly are—powerful, tender, and deeply human.
