“Our Cuisine is a History of Women” Ceramic Timeline


Featured in Vittles Magazine (2023)
This series of hand built and painted ceramics was created as part of my final year project about domestic cooking. The ceramics chart a timeline which instates peasant women as the unappreciated architects of the development of many cuisines from many cultures. The design of each object is based on a piece of archaeological cookware which corresponds to a moment in women’s cooking history. The text comes from “Women’s Food Matters” by Vicki A. Swinbank, an academic, feminist revision of cooking history. 
This work was featured in Vittles Magazine as part of an essay I wrote about my final year NCAD project.
