SHELTER
Everything seems to be in the throes of displacement nowadays. For some, even that most eternal of verities, the home, seems to be on the move. For many people, 'shelter' and its connotations, has become a contradictory and nomadic concept, based around abandonment – shanty towns, internment camps, border villages – as much as the securities of homecoming: fixated on security, yet forced into flux, shelter is caught between a place (always 'here') and no place – another word for utopia. Eyedrum wishes to construct one of these border towns, caught between permanence and flow, a village of those who have nothing in common but their shelter, a village 'on the lam' forced to flee, yet still capable of holding the human heart.
