“Forever Yours, AI” features a series of floral sculptures that reclaim the role of women in the ceramic industry. Floral production, a traditionally industrial technique, was carried out almost exclusively by women during the 19th and 20th centuries in European factories. This work, produced within a hierarchically patriarchal environment, reflected labor segregation and wage inequality, which perpetuated women’s economic dependence on their male counterparts.
