Kitchen-Studio | 10 October to 4 November 2017
MAY SPACE, Gadigal/Sydney
EXHIBITION BRIEF: The artists in this exhibition take the space of the kitchen as the site of their performative artwork. The films echo the artwork of Feminist artists of the 1970s who utilised women’s work to challenge traditional ideas of domesticity. Utilising household gestures of cooking and preparing food, the artists interrogate a number of broad themes including the body, labour, and collaboration.
