GOING BACK HOME

Films by Louise Bourque, Matthias Müller, Patricia Gruben & Phil Solomon

This one hour programme of works explores themes of discordant domestic spaces and the underlying unease that resides beneath an otherwise wholesome veneer.

Notions of memory & nostalgia anxiously intertwine through painterly impressions imbued in the frayed emulsions of decaying home movie footage paired alongside depictions of familial recollections bordering on psychodrama.
