The Gendered Burden of Care Work


A jumbo newsprint zine which encourages readers to recognize the burden of unpaid care work placed on women and advocates for the redistribution of such labor.

OCTOBER—NOVEMBER 2023

A jumbo newsprint zine which adapts text from the 2022 Atlantic article “The Devaluation of Care Work is by Design” by Angela Garbes and “Recognize, Reduce, and Redistribute Unpaid Care Work “ by Diane Elson from the New Labor Forum. Design draws from second wave feminist print culture to convey a sense of urgency and encourage the reader to action. Display typeface is bold and condensed, echoing language famously employed by Deva Pardue and Barbara Kruger.
