We’ll die and housework is never done, "Nos morimos y el quehacer no se acaba"

In this project I portray the domestic intimacy of various women who have given me the confidence to approach them and I show how they live their daily lives, some worked in other homes and others dedicated themselves entirely to the home.

Women dedicate 50 hours a week in contrast to 20 hrs. that men dedicate to it according to data from INEGI (The National Institute of Statistics and Geography in Mexico). 74.8% of home care activities are carried out by women.

In her article ¿Madrecita Santa?, from 1995, journalist and anthropologist Marta Lamas comments:

The family is the unrecognized workplace of women, mostly mothers. The myth privileges the family environment, and hides that mothers' responsibility for this private space limits their public participation. Although it is declared that the family has moral superiority over any other public sphere, it is evident that the family is not prioritized politically with economic measures or services.

This project show photographs of 7 seven woman that allowed me be inside their house cotidianity and where they share their home experience as housewife and inequalities of gender .
