Subject and Association Descriptionhttps://womenslibrary.org.uk/event/pouring-out-pouring-in-visualising-womens-multiple-work:
Artist Ailie Rutherford has been working with us to visualise the complex nature of work and care for many women. This exhibition will display prints and other outcomes from the Mapping Women’s Work workshop series at GWL. Supported by items from the GWL archive and books from the Feminist Exchange Network library, (currently living in the GWL event space) and building on a University of Glasgow study, the workshops invited women to map out their multiple roles and responsibilities, take part in conversations about precarious, undervalued and invisible labour and to think together about how we might move towards a more equitable economic system. The results and visualisations of their collective thinking will be exhibited.
Ailie Rutherford‘s practice is grounded in feminist economics, creating participatory artworks that connect women’s lived experiences with feminist theory.
