The Sea Eats the Land At Home 2018

Exhibition venue: Homiey Humboldt Park, Chicago IL

The papercutting collections “Ruminations,” “Cold Spots,” “Under the Tropics,” and “In Moderation” were simultaneously launched at Homiey in Humboldt Park, Chicago. Day Party 3.0 is an afternoon of music and local art featuring Yang Pulongbarit Cuevo, Christopher Brown, Delicious Demon House, and Kaira Peyton.

The Sea Eats the Land at Home is a poem written by Kofi Awoonor. It portrays the home as a place of belonging and security until the sea intrudes and violently dismantles it. The destruction of this sanctuary also mirrors the loss of ones identity, comfort, and safety. The engulfing sea leaves behind displacement and grief, as it shatters a home.
