Violence against women often results from the belief of their lower status and proor contributions to building and developing communities. Home duties, necessary for the functioning of households - and therefore entire economies - is not worth remuneration or even commentary. Cooking, cleaning, wiping, washing up, serving, planning, buying, counting, bringing in, taking out... Over time, the internal dynamics of domestic relationships change, often leading to violent acts towards women. Fabric used in the project is old kitchen clothes collected by three generations of women from a single family.
(The term 'szmatom' refers to the double meaning of 'szmata' in the Polish language. It is used to describe a distressed floor/ kitchen cloth or as an insult towards a woman)
