"On Women's Recipes" is a project of the Arts Council in Buffalo and Erie County with two production phases: film and mural. Cinema verité techniques were used to document several different women's daily production of food. Stills from the 16mm film comprise a collage-like mural of images that "addresses the richness of women's cross-cultural culinary creativity." In order "to capture the impact of their culture's food on the American experience," the women represent unique ethnic merits of African-American, Iroquois, Mexican, and Puerto Rican cuisine.
