windy HOME 25-26.05.2024


Is home a symbol of stability in an ever-changing world? Is the perspective of HOME becoming fluid? Can the emotion associated with it be defined?

‘windy HOME’ is the first chapter of PKRD 59 and serves as an invitation to our safe space. In a time of chaos and various crises, including ecological, gender, and social issues, we aim to create an alternative sense of serenity. The notion of HOME in an interdisciplinary aspect of different cultures and contexts, can represent a wide range of meanings and functions. It embodies a sanctuary focusing on the production of a feeling of safety and security.

In this sanctuary, care and nurturing should be experienced both individually and inter-relationally. It has the power to root itself and produce stabilit that fosters in the unit its perception of belonging. The individuals develop their environment in an expressive way seeking to spread their comfort and autonomy within it. HOME tends to thrive regardless of the base underneath it, whether socioeconomic, culturally traditional, historical, or environmental - its structure is fluid, but its core is reinforced by the desire for belonging and the search for personal solace.

How, then, is this sense of security created in terms of the public versus the private? To what extent does placing oneself and their HOME in the public sphere go beyond an experience of comfort? In what was does collective stepping into the safe nests of others transcend them?

PRIVATE AND PUBLIC

This curatorial collaborative approach is trying to describe, share and (re)present the artist residency experience. During this period, artists adopt a nomadic perspective. Temporarily leaving their habitat and comfort in favor of a creative playground where they explore the unknown and discover themselves from various forms. Our separate universe creates a HOME that functions as a creative oasis where we can retreat, recharge, and reconnect.Understand its influence and observe its impact on daily life and the process of creation. It provides both a personal and shared vision and evokes sensitivity and emotions.
