Casa X is a group show of seven Latinx artists coming together under one roof as 'homemakers' to forge a surreal and multi-sensorial vision of home.
About
Casa X is a group show of seven Latinx-identifying artists coming together under one roof as 'homemakers' to forge a surreal and sensorial vision of 'home'. Ranging from installations to photography and moving images, this body of work serves as a prompt to redefine notions of home in the wake of the ‘shifting border’, both tangible and imagined, as the new paradigm.
It envisions 'home' as a fluid site of negotiation, a crossroad of identities where all personal incongruences can unfold and lay to rest. Through the interstices between harmony and dissonance, surrealism and mundanity, wholeness and fragmentation, Casa X cultivates a multiply authored story of Latinx diasporic life.

Casa X is curated by a group of third-year students on BA Culture, Criticism and Curation at Central Saint Martins, in collaboration with the UK-Mexican Arts Society and The Latinxs Collective of the University of the Arts London.
