Inspired by television soap operas, self-help books, spiritual rituals, and product marketing especially for skin whitening and hair straightening shampoo, each washing station features a hand-made, rose-scented soap that suggests it can wash off everything from guilt to apathy. As the soaps are used and the words disappear, the bronze cast soap dishes patina while the water gets cloudy which darkens the shadow below the fiberglass sink. An anticipated conclusion that is set on repeat if "Daily Soaps" marketing is successful.
