About the Project

The 1000 Words: Home Not Home Exhibition features artists’ works inspired by writers’ submissions and is on display at the PACH Gallery May 3rd–June 2nd. The project also features a poster series wheatpasted in our neighborhoods and on the streets.

The Home Not Home Project examines the complicated dichotomies of the idea of home and explores ideas of the world we want! Home Not Home investigates themes of belonging/ not belonging, freedom/ captivity, safety/ danger, comfort/ discomfort, inclusive/ exclusive, building/ destroying, and place/ displacement. Home Not Home aims to demonstrate that while the concept of home is universal, the experience is very personal.

Both the project and exhibition is a collaboration between
AnySquared Projects and Pilsen Arts & Community House.
