HOME ON ME
University of the Arts London's The Curation Society and Decolonising Fashion Society are thrilled to present 'Home On Me' at Hoxton Arches. This collaboration will show a selection of works surrounding the notion of home, identity, and belonging.
Visitors are invited into the intimate corners of the artists' world, sharing the joy of their fondest dreams but also the sorrows of tender memories. The diversity of mediums that will shape this journey-including acrylic on wood, garment pieces, photography, etcetera- illustrates the fluidity of the meaning attached to the word 'Home'.
In a time where identity is constantly being questioned and challenged, 'Home on Me' celebrates the personal, distinct lenses in which each artist chooses to handle the theme. The result has been parallel explorations of concepts of language and translation, memory and dreaming, and the life of objects.

Focusing on the ideas of home, identity and belonging, my work ‘London and My Hometown’ will discuss the attachment between us and the earth, the connections we embrace with our journey with the land. Using the materials gathered at my homeland, this work begins to explore the link I have with London, where I live, and Hertfordshire, my birthplace.
