Stephanie H. Shih’s Domestic Bliss reimagines 1990s consumer goods in hand-painted ceramic sculptures, playfully addressing tensions within modern family life. Through objects like cleaning supplies, diet foods, and self-help books, she highlights contradictions in gender roles, relationships, and consumerism. A mix of humor and nostalgia permeates the works, from Divorce for Dummies to frozen meals symbolizing family roles, exposing the conflicts between convenience, loneliness, and domestic ideals.
