A new Film by Eric Minh Swenson Exploring the theme of tasks that have traditionally been designated to women, “Kneading to Prove”, my current work/performance in which I bake bread daily with the intent to speak for a history of gendered division of labor. After each bread is baked, I save the parchment that it was baked on as a reflection or documentation of the performance. In this way, the oven (which functions like a printing press in my practice) and the sewing machine act as conduits for communication. As I continue to bake, I am creating books and stitched wall hangings to display these repetitions. For more info on Eric Minh Swenson visit his website at emsartscene.com.
