Notes
The apron impression was made in green ink on an arborite surface. The hands were printed from folded , inked,paper cutouts. Colour gradations were added on arms, from inked card through a stencil, to indicate pressure and pain. The dark background was added later from inked card around a blocking stencil which covered the image.
The gesture of this apron expresses the helplessness of her exploited existence.
