What do colorful found objects on a London pier have to do with your fertility journey? You might be surprised.
Recently, London’s Fulham Pier was transformed by the vibrant imagination of artist Yinka Ilori, who unveiled an installation titled ’100 Found Objects’. This isn’t just public art—it’s a playful constellation of flora, fauna, and everyday treasures, each piece collected and curated to tell a story. It got us thinking: isn’t the fertility journey a bit like assembling your own 'found objects'—unexpected pieces that come together to create hope, joy, and life?
If that sounds like a stretch, stay with me. Because the parallels between this dazzling art project and those intimate, sometimes challenging steps toward parenthood reveal some fascinating insights.
Finding Beauty in the Unexpected
Yinka Ilori’s installation is a celebration of “found”—objects that might have been overlooked or discarded, repurposed into something new and uplifting. Fertility, especially when embarking on a path outside the usual clinical setting, often involves piecing together solutions you didn’t expect to need.
For many, that’s exactly the case when choosing at-home insemination. Far from the sterile environment of a clinic, it invites you to create a space of comfort, control, and personal empowerment. It’s about finding the right tools and techniques that fit your unique story—just like Ilori’s 100 objects combined to craft something extraordinary.
The Power of Personalization: From Art to At-Home Fertility Kits
Just as each found object is chosen for its story and charm, fertility solutions are not one-size-fits-all. Enter MakeAMom, a trailblazer in home insemination kits designed with your specific needs in mind.

Why Does This Matter Now More Than Ever?
As our world shifts rapidly, with more people exploring non-traditional paths to parenthood, the power to create a nurturing, private, and adaptable fertility experience is priceless. And it’s not just about convenience; it’s about reclaiming control over your journey.
Yinka Ilori’s installation reminds us that beauty and hope can spring from unexpected places—and that includes your own home. The vibrant mix of flora and fauna at Fulham Pier is a metaphor for diversity, growth, and resilience. Fertility journeys often feel like a patchwork of emotions and challenges, but with the right support, they bloom spectacularly.
