Where is your home? What and whom you need to feel home? How important is home for you?
With different artistic positions the exhibition aims to move between the poles: home as a “place of wellbeing” in all its impetuosity, normality and happiness and as a place with uncertainties that come from inside and outside.

“No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks.”
(humans rights, article 12)

It might be possible to say home is a general basic for humans, but is different or unique for each. This uniqueness doesn’t prevent us to recognize that there are homes which have similarities and others don’t.
So individuell and general aspects will be discussed. What are the circumstances, to have a home or to lose a home? What does it mean if estate speculators only follow profit maximization and don’t care if people lose their houses or flats? What kind of circumstances we need that everybody has their own save home? Maybe we think home is a very private issue, it is but it has to be protected.

We are inviting you to come to the new rooms of DUUL Gallery to share your thoughts about home with others and lets try to make the gallery space in a temporary homefeeling place for people from Ustí and from everywhere.
