Cutting Onions at The MC Showroom Tickets

Cutting Onions demonstrates the effects these constraints of gender expectations have on everyone, but exemplifies the damage it causes women.

The piece is a handcrafted visual spectacle that discards refinement and minimalism for an abundance of raw artistry. Set in a transformative kitchen space, the nuanced storytelling is matched with jarring and often surreal imagery. The kitchen transfigures itself, congruent to the woman’s emotional turmoil and emphasises the impact of the man’s unintentionally harmful actions.

Cutting Onions challenges conventionally accepted behaviours and invites reflection and introspection. It depicts the experience of one individual woman, while representing something universally experienced by women.
