giant inflatable breast tops shoreditch building in pop-up campaign by mother london
to raise awareness around the social stigmas of breastfeeding, a london-based creative agency added a surprising, oversized breast to the streets of shoreditch.
in celebration of mother’s day in the UK, and in hopes of raising awareness around the social stigmas of breastfeeding, a london-based creative agency added a surprising, oversized breast to the streets of shoreditch. as part of its #freethefeed campaign, mother topped an ordinary brick building in the east london district with an enormous, inflatable breast-shaped balloon. nearby, flyers posted on the walls offered insight into the pop-up initiative’s intent, elaborating on its objective to spread a social message, rather than to merely induce shock.

the insertion of the round inflatable anatomy aimed to generate a conversation about motherhood, specifically the stigmas that surround breastfeeding. mother london explains the campaign’s intent in more detail in a blog post: ‘it’s hard to believe that in 2017, UK mothers still feel watched and judged when feeding in public, by bottle or breast. this was our mother’s day project. a celebration of every woman’s right to decide how and where they feed their children without feeling guilty or embarrassed about their parenting choices.’
