Press Release

“Home is a place, a site in which we live... an idea, an imaginary that is imbued with feelings of belonging, desire and intimacy...of violence, fear and alienation” (Home, Blunt & Dowling).

The Walls Between Us, explores the complex notion of ‘home’ through the perspective of 12 artists. Home is a multifaceted and subjective construct. This complexity is summarised by the untranslatable Welsh word ‘Hiraeth’, which combines feelings of nostalgia, a longing for somewhere more than a space and a heart wrenching homesickness towards something or somewhere which is lost forever.

Through this curation, we ask the viewers to question their assumptions of building a home – where is it? Who is it? What makes it good and safe?

The Walls Between Us was curated by SOTA Marketplace, a purpose-led online art gallery and art consultancy built to empower artists and give art back to the people. SOTA’s purpose is to democratise the arts, challenging the inequity of the industry. They currently represent over 800 underrepresented artists internationally.
