HOME: a moving place considers home as something lived through motion—built from departures, returns, and the in-between states migration creates. Rather than a fixed location or stable identity, the exhibition follows home as a shifting structure, including habits, images, objects, languages, and bodily memories that continually adapt to new environments.

Across film, installation, ceramics, painting, a modular storybook, and photographic narrative, the works approach home through architecture and gravity, domestic interiors, accumulated objects, tempo, and the labor of remembering. Built spaces become a record of lived history, with the structure of stairs and thresholds repeating like a continuous climb. Materials hang, stretch, and re-form, suggesting a self that must loosen its frame to endure change. Stories arrive in fragments, between the modular and its rearrangeable feature, inviting viewers to experience identity as something assembled rather than inherited whole. Other works linger on the pressure of time: delay, confusion, and acceleration reshaping what it feels like to belong. Quiet interiors become archives, where everyday objects hold multiple cultures at once. Migrant narratives unfold through symbols and images, tracing home as something translated over time within woven from relationships, labor, and the ongoing negotiation between familiarity and change.

Together, the exhibition proposes home as a moving place: not a destination, but a practice of holding and re-forming the self in fluid, unfinished, and still intact structure.
