LEARN YOUR NECESSITIES: HOW TO COOK CLEAN AND MORE!

Oil on canvas, 2 videos on iPads, archival inkjet print on vinyl
 

Sandra denaturalizes conventional ideas about women's work before the audience's eyes, making a familiar concept strange and uncomfortable. In her selfie-style vlogs, Sandra begrudgingly does her household duties, her resentment thinly masked by an artificial smile. The paintings capture stills from these videos, revealing the moments where the scenes of domestic labor double as scenes of psychological angst. The paintings expose "plot points" in the constantly-rehearsed choreography of housework. This assembly of videos and static paintings disrupt the traditional conventions of both media. Together, these pieces create and subvert a rhythm, inviting the viewer to assemble and disassemble the monotony of domestic labor.
