“Mexican architect Tatiana Bilbao has designed La Ropa sucia se Lava Encasa, an installation at Melbourne's National Gallery of Victoria that features a large washbasin and patchwork quilts to ‘produce a conversation about care.’ Bilbao installed La Ropa sucia se Lava Encasa (Dirty Clothes are Washed at Home) ... to argue that clothing, not architecture, is the body's ‘first layer of protection.’ A large concrete washbasin and colourful patchwork quilts draped on geometric clotheshorse-style hangers are arranged across a single room to invite visitors to reflect on the countless people, mostly women, around the world who do our laundry, according to the architect.”
