EPIC DOMESTIC is Bobby Baker’s artistic mission to fight gender injustice, connect communities and challenge the unequal division of domestic labour in the home. Inspired by activism, propaganda, and the untold stories of women all over the world, EPIC DOMESTIC is her quest to create a Domestic Revolutionary Party fit for the 21st Century.

To complement the grandeur of this notion Bobby has developed the Subversive Sandwich Workshops – a revolutionary technique to introduce the concept of maverick joy in acts of domestic labour.

The Subversive Sandwich Workshops are more than just a culinary activity – they are an artistic and cultural exploration. Participants assemble sandwiches that symbolise aspects of their daily lives while sharing the personal stories behind their creations.

The workshop begins with an introduction and performance by Bobby Baker, followed by screening a short introductory film. Participants are asked to consider a moment of joy, or pride in their daily lives and express it in cunning ways, using everyday sandwich ingredients.

Aims of the workshop:

Through these workshops Bobby aims to recruit a wide range of people to join her in reflecting on the often overlooked value of domestic labour through the simple yet powerful act of making sandwiches and getting to know each other.

More about Bobby BakerBobby Baker’ s acclaimed intersectional feminist practice includes performance, drawing, and installation, and persistently exposes the undervalued and stigmatised aspects of women’s daily lives, exemplified by pioneering works such as Drawing on a Mother’s Experience (1988) and Kitchen Show (1991). In 1976, Bobby staged An Edible Family in a Mobile Home, a sculptural installation inside her Acme housing prefab in Conder Street, E3. The work featured five life-size sculptures of family members made from cake, biscuits and meringues, which were gradually eaten by the public over the course of a week. This major work was recreated at Tate Britain in 2023 and at the Whitworth in Manchester in 2025, as part of the touring exhibition Women in Revolt! Art and Activism in the UK 1970–1990. Bobby and her company Daily Life Ltd. originally had a Bow Arts Studio in Stratford. During those 5 years, she created several site-specific projects in the East End including launching was the Roving Diagnostic Unit (20) in our beloved Tower Hamlets Cemetry Park.
