The California Institute of the Art's postgraduate exhibition showcases art emerging from the blurred boundaries of work and home life, featuring 24 artists from the 2024 Master of Fine Arts program. The artists create intimate inquiries into the meaning of home, drawing attention to its dual physical and emotional significance. Through works that incorporate accessible domestic materials and nostalgic elements, the exhibit evokes a complex relationship with home, where spaces become intertwined with memories, work, and care, showcasing how domesticity influences artistic expression.
Chaska Jurado's 'De colores' features a vivid archival pigment print of a vacant domestic interior, transforming a nostalgic floor into a tufted rug, exemplifying the domestic art's emotional ties.
Jennifer Van's 'Resilience' portrays an outstretched hand in cryptic black-and-white imagery, rendered across 12 wooden panels, invoking intimacy's unpredictable power through commonplace details.
In Amanda Teixeira's 'how to peel an orange or invisible acts of care,' threads bind orange peels in a hanging structure, blending the potential of waste with acts of care.
The California Institute of the Art's exhibition explores the blurred boundaries of home and work, inviting viewers to consider the evolving emotional and physical landscape of domesticity.
