This installation is a tribute to the artists’ Gran, who always donned an apron as she sewed and sowed, cooked and stirred with the seasons. The symbol of the apron has passed through the generations, to the artists’ mum and then on to her.

This work is a part of 'Unus Multorum' an exhibition that was meant to have opened in April, 2020 with projects and installations from 111 creative people. Transformed by the global pandemic, it has evolved into a time-less project, gently unfolding over the course of the year inside the house and in the digital realm.
