Drop Dead Gorgeous

The question of the week dealt with the artist Daniela Edburg, and her series of picures "drop dead gorgeous".  The question was:

 "In the series Drop Dead Gorgeous, what do you think are then links between the objects, gender, and context?"

I noticed that everyone in this series are female, and are in mainly places where you would expect to find a typical female, for instance in the bathroom, the kitchen, the home in general.  That could be a link between the gender and the context.  The only link that I could think of having to do with the objects is that they are things that people like a lot, and sometimes treasure a little more than they should.  For instance, a certain kind of candy, a certain type of ink,  certain foods ect.
    I suppose what the artist could have been getting at was that in such a mundane world for many females, being trapped into expectations created by their gender, they cling to the few things that they like in life, but sometimes cling a little too hard.  It might have to do with how obsessed some house wives become with simple things, like a certain kind of candy.  I've seen this happen before actually.  Mom mother was a stay at home mom for my brother and I while we were growing up, and we spent a good deal of time in twenty years or so stuck in the house, doing house things.  My mom must have washed dishes and done laundry at least a million times.  I suppose all of these boring and repetitive, almost mind numbingly tedious tasks were rewarded mostly with her own stash of her favorite candy which she would share with nobody, but always seem to be eating.  Her favorite candy happened to be circus peanuts, the little marshmallow peanut candies that you can only find in a few stores anymore.  She would flip whenever she found out that someone had found her candy stash.  That candy was like blood to her.
