Abstract: This thesis explores Matrescence, a developmental stage for new mothers, focusing on the challenges faced in urban Asian environments. Specifically, it examines the limited attention given to Matrescence in Asian contexts, particularly in Thailand, and investigates the impact of short paid maternity leave, workplace inflexibility, and lack of childcare support on the experiences of new mothers. Through a practice-led approach using autoethnography, visual analysis, and literature review, the study aims to raise awareness and understanding of Matrescence in Asian communities and empower new mothers through artwork and literature. By reflecting on personal experiences as a mother and analyzing culturally significant artwork on Motherhood, the research sheds light on the importance of supporting and empowering women during the Matrescence journey, promoting work-life balance, and nurturing the well-being of families. The findings contribute to the discourse on motherhood as an identity in visual culture and provide insights for policymakers, employers, and communities to create a supportive environment for new mothers in Asian societies.
