Not ~ At Home features the work of Peruvian-born, Philadelphia-based artist Cecilia Paredes, who explores issues of domesticity, gender, and diaspora through her practice of photography, performance, and bodily coverage via painting and textile. Viewed here in conversation with ceramic, feather, and fabric objects from Peru in special collections, Peredes’s work also prompts questions of restitution and repatriation – where home is and might be for these artifacts.
Curated by Emily Alesandrini (HART PhD student) with curatorial contributions from Dr. Carrie Robbins and programming and exhibition assistance from Joselyn Garcia (HART MA student).
