Collective Home
Collective Home is a sculptural installation that examines the relationship between borders, belonging, and the idea of home. Drawing on the visual language of security fencing and domestic architecture, the work brings together two structures associated with opposing functions: exclusion and shelter.
By transforming the fence—a structure designed to separate, protect, and regulate access—into the outline of a shared home, the installation questions how physical boundaries shape ideas of safety, community, and belonging. The work recontextualizes an architecture of division as a space of encounter and collective belonging, inviting viewers to reconsider who is allowed in, who remains outside, and how the idea of “home” is constructed.
This pubic work was funded and produced in collaboration with Downtown Atlanta Inc. and Dashboard and Installed at Woodruff Park in Atlanta in 2021 and Route 66 in Albuquerque New Mexico in 2022.
"Collective Home" received one of the inaugural Arts & Entertainment Atlanta grants in 2021.
