Domestic

November 19 – December 19, 2015. PHOTO Gallery.

The domestic is often a space relegated to women and the feminine. In this exhibition, five female photographers both embrace and push against stereotypes of the domestic. Each of the participating photographers invites us to examine ideas about time, home and family through traces left behind. Small details of domestic items are monumentalized through their investigations with the camera. These details are often so mundane as to be overlooked, and have a visceral quality that is simultaneously uncomfortable and seductive. Domestic celebrates everyday moments, reimagining the home as a space of chaotic, imperfect beauty.

Participating artists: Elizabeth Bernstein, Charlotta Hauksdottir, Victoria Mara Heilweil, Kija Lucas, Mary Parisi
