The Heritage Lab
In collaboration with the Laws of Social Reproduction project, The Heritage Lab developed a digital museum of labour titled ‘A Time to Care: Women’s Worth/Work’.
In every society, women have played integral roles in sustaining life, nurturing families, and supporting communities. Yet, the true extent (and diversity) of women’s contributions to society are frequently obscured or undervalued.
This exhibition invites you to reflect on the various forms of labour performed by women, both within the institutional domain of marriage and outside conventional societal structures - such as paid domestic work, sex work, erotic dancing, commercial surrogacy and egg donation.
Through a collection of narratives, media, and artistic expressions, we hope to present the intersections of gender, labour, law and power.
