Home | Casa Art Exhibition
This art exhibition explores belonging by considering an expanded concept of home. Is home a place, a person, a feeling, a group, a way of being? Do we gravitate between multiple “homes” or spaces of multiple belonging? Artists were invited to celebrate belonging and as well as hybridity, ambiguity, and transition in art media of their choice.
Using home as a starting point, student artists explored themes of cultural heritage, longing, political and social reality, family and found family, nature, and place.
Home | Casa is organized by the Department of Visual Arts and funded by the Office of Student Involvement and the Gender & Sexuality Alliance student club.
