Description:
Anonymous Women is about becoming the dwelling itself: experiencing joys and terrors of domesticity; challenging the idea of home and identity. The series is a commentary on obsessive collecting, accumulating, designing and decorating, inviting hilarity and pathos about our relationship with “things.”
“Staying home” is a state that some women also aspire to as a place of power, while others abhor because of its prison-like atmosphere. The worlds within Anonymous Women debunk, critique and satirize suburban myths of claustrophobic perfection, in the hopes of bringing humor to pathos.
In all cases, women need “A room of their own.”
The series is also a small tribute to Scarlett O’Hara, who, undaunted by wars, pulled down her drapery to fashion a beautiful gown, and would do anything to keep her home, Tara.
