The project
The project starts with a trigger:
A Home means our whole world. It's not just a place to stay or a shelter; it's where we show ourselves completely. The house observes and encapsulates all these truths. There is a strong connection between us and the place.
The house speaks about us and reflects our engagement with the world. All these individual homes together make up the grand house, the one we all share, our community.
My art project invites everyone to reflect and explore how we can express our homes by cutting a template paper house and decorating it as we wish. Trying to express how is our Home. And how your home reflects who we are.
Then, it's about sharing that with others. To do this, I have created a special 2D corner inside the store and Gallery Clevedon Creatives +Co to display all the paper houses already decorated. Our Homes!
