Natalie Lennard (b. 1986) is a fine-art and commercial photographer whose work has been exhibited in the Saatchi Gallery and Houses of Parliament, featured by the BBC, El Pais and NY Arts, and whose commercial clients include Nikon, HTC and Guo Pei. 'Birth Undisturbed' is Lennard's first major project to focus on a biosocial topic, with documentary video accompaniment, striving to combine the rawness of childbirth into the art world and Western consciousness in an unprecedented way. Depicting births of icons from the Virgin Mary to Calamity Jane and the Queen, partly inspired by the artist's own experience of motherhood and birth, the series' timeliness is ever more appropriate in a global maternity crisis.
