Performance: Anne Mourier, Taking Care Laundry
Over the course of the performance, Anne Mourier invites the audience to drop in and help honor domestic rituals of care and tradition around washing and preparing clothes.
We have forgotten but there is healing in the humble pleasures of domestic life. Doing the laundry—the feel of fresh water on your hands, the smell of Marseille soap and lavender, the calm of the white linens drying in the sun, the iron gliding on silk, the crisp, white sheets, the pile of perfectly pressed shirts—the sensation of labor accomplished. Artist Anne Mourier questions if these simple pleasures can build bridges amongst us. She invites you to do laundry with her. Favorite white articles of clothing will be collected, washed by hand, dried in the sun, ironed and folded with care, perfumed with fresh lavender and returned to their owners. She wonders…could our society start healing simply by Taking Care of things and of each other?
