I visited an exhibition called Women’s Work at Project: Wollongong’s Contemporary Artspace. It represented the work of numerous local women artists publicized by Sue Bessell. I liked the double meaning suggested by the title. Interestingly, the ‘domestic domain’ was omitted almost entirely. I would be the last person to expect women have the corner on this topic but neither do many women get away without some sort of response to this important ‘internal area’ – especially women artists! I certainly struggle with being and artist and being a homemaker. Am I alone in this?
