Spaces Called Home
The concept of home has been on my mind and in my artwork for a few years. The concept is multidimensional incorporating place, food, dis/comfort, possessions, memories, people, and sensory experiences that inform our perception of what becomes home. Shortly after the difficult period during my mother’s passing in 2016, this series of ten paintings, ten drawings, and a textile piece, developed around this concept of home, and the notion of internal/external, and abstract/physical space. I have recorded stories from my many residences, memories, states of mind-space, and reminiscings, in search and in honor of my mother’s nourishment called home.
