This image spans two bowls, bringing Edgar Degas’ 1868 Interior into dialogue with domestic space. The painting depicts a tense, intimate scene interpreted as sexual violence, exploring power, vulnerability and the domestic sphere.

    Handmade, hand-painted ceramic bowls combining historic artworks, mythological depictions and contemporary accounts of sexual violence.

    Placed on domestic objects of care and daily life, the series traces how these images echo across centuries. Quiet but confronting, each bowl holds histories that are neither distant nor resolved.
