The video performance, in which I cover my face with burnt milk, is a protest against reproductive propaganda in the context of a global demographic crisis. The impersonal treatment of women, who are all assigned the mythical "maternal instinct," strips both mothers and non-mothers of their subjectivity and free will. In the performance, I create a mask that obscures my unique face, metaphorically grappling with the imposed role I am expected to fulfill for the "greater good."
Video performance, along with an object and a photo series, is part of a three-piece installation titled (Re)production: The Personal is Political.
