home sweet home - Goldsmiths 2006
This one-day durational piece had eight hours construction time: A 7 X 9 m canvas with 50 plots in total. Each house was detached and an equal distance from each other. During the day a playlist of music was constantly heard in the space.



There were different playlists for different moods/times of the day.Lighting reflected real time and constantly changed throughout the day.
The residents were asked back for the last hour between 7 and 8 pm. They were invited to 'meet and greet' thier neighbours with drink and cake.
At 8 pm the streetlights came on in the village, marking the end of the day. Residents were then able to take their 'home' home.

Subject to_ change thanks all who have supported home sweet home.

A special thank you goes to:
Katja Hilevaara - home sweet home would not exist without your constant questioning, pushing and prodding. Thank you for the endless inspiration, support and encouragement you have shown, past and present.
