HOME CORNERS

HOME CORNERS ///

HOME CORNERS is a collective memoir from Lizzy Tan, Tot Whittle and Jan Margolius. Set to a soundscape sampling sounds from their childhood homes in Texas and the UK, and excerpts read from journals kept over the years 2014-2020, HOME CORNERS is a reflection on change and re-encountering past selves.

The livestream installation is a response to the following: How does one hold on to identity in changing environments? How do we look at the familiar in new ways? In our shared experience of crisis and stillness, how do we want to begin again? The use of six cameras through two livestreams creates a sense of reflection, distance, and voyeurship in tandem with the deeply intimate content of the artists’ memories.
