“Jitka Géringová’s kitchen etudes, simple and pared down in expression, are surprising in their semantic ambiguity. In the preparation of food we see the everyday, the repetition and articulation of time, and at the same time renewal, stagnation and sacrifice. The principle of woman-mother is present in this age-old activity, along with the dichotomies of home and abroad, security and danger... The artist also allows the social context to be heard through the selection of specific, content-laden material, above all the question of female identity.” (Michal Koleček, 1997)
