"On Demand" draws on the artist’s personal postpartum experience with breastfeeding while also commenting on breastfeeding in contemporary society. Datchuk explains, “Breastfeeding is unpaid gendered labor in which womxn suffer economic, mental, physical, emotional, and political exhaustion. As a woman navigating the reproductive complex for over a decade–from endometriosis and infertility to pregnancy and postpartum–and as an artist questioning both the policing of women’s bodies in our society and the value placed on our labor in the global economy, I see women as the source of everything, yet witness how systems fail to support us.”
