AGE HAS WITHERED OFF MY TONGUE
‘The yeast must die for the bread to rise...’
Age has withered off my tongue is an exploration of the transformative properties of turmeric, flour and the ritual of bread-making.
We explore the ceremonial heritage attached to them and to our cultural ancestries through the sacred-yet-profane act of preparing a meal. Breathing in the space between live art, theatre and installation - this work examines domesticity and the role of women within different cultural contexts.
