The Post Modern Housewife is based on notions of time, accumulation and progression. The printing process mimics these notions through a series of marks and overlapping colours that gradually build upon each other forming an interlocking ring pattern. In eight stages, a set of marks were carved into the block, after each stage was printed I would set a portion of the prints aside. I continued this process of carving, printing and setting prints aside until the pattern evolved, becoming more complex at each stage. The pattern references the double wedding ring quilt pattern, which has been used within this craft to commemorate a wedding. I have appropriated this pattern as a symbol of marriage, which now has been redefined in Canada to include same sex couples |
