The series was created by the artist during a ‘photographic performance’ in which she spent twenty-four hours dressed as a woman and carried out the everyday tasks of a woman of her generation: cleaning, washing up, doing the laundry, waiting for her husband… A second aspect of the performance concerns the contradictory fantasies, ranging from the conventional to the subversive, harboured by this “ordinary woman” in the secrecy of her mundane daily life.
“I did not presume, by dressing as a woman for 24 hours, to lay bare the full complexity of the female condition. Rather, I wanted to illustrate a number of situations, to experience them with my own body, to prompt the public to ask questions, to show women how trapped they are, and to show men what they can do to a woman”.
