Turning gendered semiotics and the genre works of domestic settings on its head, Shelter Domestics examines the unusual current situation of home life where boundaries of the private and the public are blurred and at times, interchanged.
About
Shelter Domestics
12 June - 31 August
Turning gendered semiotics and the genre works of domestic settings on its head, 'Shelter Domestics' examines the pandemic lockdown situation of home life brought about by COVID-19, where boundaries of the private and the public are blurred and at times, interchanged. It asks questions about the new politics of home as a place of confinement, refuge, work and play and the tensions that arise from these conflicting functions. Featuring the works of twenty-six artists across a range of mediums from twelve countries, 'Shelter Domestics' captures the uncertain present and serves as a vivid documentation of a significant moment in history.
'Shelter Domestics' is the final instalment of a suite of three online exhibitions by Gallery Lane Cove + Creative Studios. The gallery's first online exhibition of international and local artists, 'Shelter Domestics' is presented in two formats - an online image gallery and a 3D Virtual Reality exhibition space. Both galleries are on view till 31 August on the Gallery Lane Cove + Creative Studios website.
