Laundromatic Expectations
Hardcore Art Contemporary Space
Nina Dotti recounts a feminist discourse. She uses humor and parody to communicate women’s expectations in their marriages. Laundromatic Expectations is an outdoor installation of recycled washing machines. In them, the public will find diverse relational objects alluding to gender and femininity. Using fun objects and parodic elements, the artist plays on a sharp critique to feminist alienation. She recreates a real size Laundromat as a metaphor to heavy daily household tasks. There are intervened laundry soap boxes, large Laundromat photos printed on plotters, droll objects, and short phrases that mimic the dominant voices of the domestic myth.
The installation stands as an anti-heroic emblem, symbolizing feminine constraints, and the continuing alterity of women’s voices.
