HOME

Exhibition Dates: May 16 – June 20, 2026

Opening Reception: Saturday, May 16, 6-8pm

Artist Talk: TBA


Home is at once a fundamental human need, a physical place, and a space that lives entirely in the mind. It is where our stories begin — and for many of us, where they continue to return.

At the same time, home is never fixed. It is personal and communal, warmly familiar and deeply contested. Its meaning shifts across lifetimes, across borders, across generations. What we call home at twenty may feel entirely foreign at forty — and what once felt foreign may, in time, become the place we belong.

This exhibition gathers artists whose work engages the idea of home in all its complexity — from nostalgic interiors and inherited landscapes to imagined futures and structures that might shelter us on distant worlds. Whether rooted in memory, architecture, identity, or longing, each work asks: what does home mean to you?
