Beschreibung
Home Work looks at Vietnam¿s ¿craft¿ villages. These specialise in a single product or activity, anything from palmleaf hats to incense sticks, or from noodle making to snake-catching. Some of these ¿craft¿ villages date backhundreds of years, whilst others are a more recent response to enable rural farmers to earn much needed extraincome.75% of Vietnam¿s population currently live in rural areas but as the country moves towards urbanisation, itsagricultural labour force faces losing its land to urban projects ¿ and its way of life. The country¿s growingpopulation is reducing the availability of farming land and rural families, no longer able to sustain themselvesfrom the land, are turning to the creation of various products. These ¿craft¿ villages have become the meetingplace between rural and urban, agriculture and industry. During the last decade, along with rapid national economic development many craft villages have increased production up to five fold through small-scale industrial development. However, the consequence of this shift is increased waste and environmental pollution with the resources of the landscape becoming overused.Tessa Bunney spent two six month periods in Vietnam and visited many of these villages. The traditional villagehouse is typically single storey and consists of three rooms. The large central room is a multi-purpose living,sleeping and working area and it is in this room where many of Tessa¿s images are taken, the mix of work andeveryday objects fascinating her visually. Interspersed with images from daily life in the rice fields and in the villages, these photographs depict ¿working from home¿ in an unromanticised sense, where their subjects, mostlywomen, balance childcare with the routine work necessary for survival.Recently shown at The Mercer Gallery, Harrogate, Home Work begins a UK tour in London in summer 2010.Bunney has undertaken artists residences in Finland and Iceland and is currently working on a new project aboutthe ethnic minority women of south west China.
