Answer
Matrixial Gaze, a feminist theory by Bracha L. Ettinger, focuses on the pre-Oedipal bond between mother and child, particularly the mother's gaze. Ettinger argues that this gaze is not possessive or objectifying, but rather a fluid and transformative force that shapes the child's subjectivity and sense of self. The matrixial gaze is seen as a counterpoint to the patriarchal gaze, which objectifies and dominates.
