Home Is Where the Haunt is

With a continuous focus on emerging artists, the second edition, “Home Is Where the Haunt Is”, will bring together eight newly commissioned works and more than 30 recent works from 19 artists. The exhibition responds to the complex social and historical construct of ‘home’ and its etymological implication, ‘haunt’, connecting ideas of intimacy, memory, heritage, ethnicity, alienation, possession and obsession. From physical contact induced by e-textiles in moments of isolation, to the various uses of mulberry in the system of Chinese Medicine, to coral and deep-sea creatures, works in the exhibition expand intimacy as a practice of generative kinship—the latest ecosystem formed by new technology and the relational existence of organisms.
