Temporary Dwelling: Memories and Emotions in Transit

The exhibition focuses on artists' narrative-driven processes of imbuing objects with symbolic meanings, turning them into bridges connecting individuals, families, and memories. Through the forms and content of objects, the artists reconsider the composition of home and its significance in contemporary society, inspiring viewers to engage in both emotional resonance and philosophical reflection on the concept of "home." Ultimately, the central question emerges: what truly constitutes our home?  
Shoreditch district of East London, the gallery is situated in a community renowned for its rich artistic atmosphere and avant-garde culture. This area is not only a place of transient living experiences but also a stage for narratives of memory and emotion due to its unique cultural and historical context. Through this exhibition, the gallery seeks to provide a multidimensional platform for discussing the redefinition of "home," inviting viewers to reflect on the intricate relationships between objects, memory, and emotion.
