The Art of 'Woman's Work' - Artist Spotlight - Jill Scipione
Women are capable of anything, we know that better than anyone. But there is a certain kind stereotyping as to the kind of work we are traditionally expected to perform. It's usually the kind of stuff men would typically never touch, i.e. Crocheting, sewing, cooking, etc. But why is a practice that is just as technical and tedious as any other art form disregarded as nothing more than a craft or hobby. Jill Scipione has taken the age old technique and pushed it to new heights with her window installation.
