Juanita Kreps Gallery
This is (not) Home tells the story of a girl who finds herself deeply connected to a village that she hesitates to call home, a place where moments from the past fold into the present, a site that resists documentation and holds within it an ambivalence that cannot be named.
The installation is a space that embodies the flow of memory layered over time, suspended between remembrance and reality. It is a corner of the conflicted inner world that reflects a place of origin-where eventually all answers may be found.
