Heather Lee – Bon AppeTITs - Boob Basket (Brown stitching)
Employing basket weaving techniques, this table arrangement emphasises women being subjected to roles as a domestic housewife and the expectations in preparing a meal for her husband and family. The artwork intends to highlight the labour divide at home and how women sacrifice their careers in order to support their husband’s opportunity in the workforce. The use of textile techniques further encompasses traditional art forms of female history as typical elements of the dinner table such as serving trays, pots and crockery are appropriated into an array of breasts/nipples, depicting connotations of the female anatomy.
