Frying Pan

€ 2000

Evdokia Georgiou

In "Frying Pans" (2014), artist Evdokia Georgiou confronts domesticity and labor with disarming vulnerability and irony. Constructed from wax and placed atop a real electric stove, the frying pans appear as familiar objects — yet their soft, melting form upends their purpose. Here, Georgiou plays with temporality and futility: the very tools of nourishment and care are disintegrating under the pressure of their own use. It's an evocative metaphor for emotional burnout and the invisible weight of routine domestic work, especially within traditionally gendered roles.

The piece is both playful and unsettling. The pastel hues and childlike material of wax suggest delicacy, even innocence, yet the slow collapse of the wax under heat evokes a quiet violence — a dissolving identity, a body under strain. Georgiou's use of ephemeral materials emphasizes fragility, not just of objects, but of the human experiences they represent. By allowing the artwork to literally melt, she foregrounds the transient, often thankless nature of domestic labor and care.

Technically, the work integrates sculptural casting with performative installation — the moment of melting becomes an integral part of the piece's life cycle. The inclusion of real kitchen components — stove, wood, metal — further blurs the line between functional reality and conceptual critique. Through this deeply tactile and temporal medium, Georgiou invites the viewer to witness the slow erosion of form, purpose, and self — an elegant protest against the quiet consumption of the caregiver.
