Abstract

What differentiates a home from a shelter? What is a mother’s role in creating the environment we call home? What role does art and craft play in the creation of that environment? These are some of the questions I had in mind as I began this project. Although I had been working in a similar direction the previous year, I found that the questions I chose to address in my project presented a challenge, because home holds different meanings for each of us. There are many possible answers to each of the questions, all according to a persons experience. The result of my endeavor to visually express a few possible answers was a series of 17 mixed media collages containing elements of an interior, and suggestions of activities that occur within a home.
