The group exhibition looks at ideas of home as a linguistic construct. Drawn from life, memory and imagination, the works of Ethan Hayes-Chute, Pilar Quinteros, Stephanie Saade and James Webb reflect a variety of physical and psychological narratives that disentangle notions of home as a site of shelter or a place to escape from. Their instructional scores and poetic manifestos, architectural notes and archival material inspire feelings of rootedness, hope or loss with view to form as well as preserve identity, culture and history.
