Lactating Bodies


Katya Ev will develop her new performance-based project Lactating Bodies during a residency at PACT Zollverein (Essen, Germany)


15 – 23/08/2022


Lactating bodies aims to reveal monetary and symbolic value of (lactating) body labour in order to imagine new societal ecologies via contemporary performative practices. The project develops a reflection at the intersection of the Western iconography of the breastfeeding female and the present-day attitudes to the practices of body labour in public spaces. Broadly speaking, the project seeks to problematise the role of care practices in our societies through research, performative actions, and debate.

In collaboration with Ta(r)dino 6 Art Platform, curated by Azad Asifovich & Asli Samadova
