Her 1992 etching Shooting Lesson, for example, juxtaposes portraits of four Korean comfort women with a photograph of the wives of Japanese military police stationed in Korea receiving shooting lessons for self-protection against the local population. In her 1993 installation Tied to Apron Strings, she uses white aprons as both a symbol of domesticity and motherhood and as a reminder of the uniform of the Dai Nippon Fujinkai, a women's patriotic organization of World War 2 Japan. Shimada's interactive installation Bones in Tansu: Family Secrets, in which she solicited the war memories of museum visitors and incorporated them into the exhibit, first appeared in Tokyo in 2004 and then in seven other locations around the world. She performed Becoming a Statue of a Japanese Comfort Woman outside the Japanese embassy in London in 2012.

West Briton and Cornwall Advertiser 16 October 1879 (The earliest reference to a site called the "Devils Apron Strings" was recorded in a book called "A week at the Lizard" by Rev Johns some 44 years earlier and is based on a story in Cornish Folklore, actually describing it as being near a cliff fall of Serpentine near the Rill, Kynance). The Granite came from the West of England Granite Quarries at Penryn, and 2000 tons of Portland cement was used in the construction. A number of skilled stonemasons and other labourers were drafted into the village, coming from all over South West England, with T.A. Lang and Sons, of Liskeard, in charge of construction. The engineers in charge of the site were S.W. Jenkin and Son, also of Liskeard.

Like Helmreich, Fishman observes that while it began as a universal gender stereotype, exemplified by Erik Erikson's critique of "Momism" in 1950 and Philip Wylie's blast, in his 1942 Generation of Vipers, against "dear old Mom" tying all of male America to her apron strings, it quickly became highly associated with Jewish mothers in particular, in part because the idea became a staple of Jewish American fiction. This stereotype enjoyed a mixed reception in the mid-20th century. In her 1967 essay "In Defense of the Jewish Mother", Zena Smith Blau defended the stereotype, asserting that the ends, inculcating virtues that resulted in success, justified the means, control through love and guilt. Being tied to mamma kept Jewish boys away from "[g]entile friends, particularly those from poor, immigrant families with rural origins in which parents did not value education".
