It Takes A Village

This Installation project is consists of many handcrafted houses made out of clay. The houses are used as metaphors that illuminates each individual’s identity. Creating the clay houses is crucial for the unity of this project. The dictionary’s definition of a house is a dwelling that serves as living quarters or a building in which something is sheltered or located. This concept mirrors how we define ourselves within these spaces. We collectively live in communities made up of houses or shelters. Perhaps upon examination of these factors we will be able to view our interconnectedness with not only our immediate neighbor, but the world around us as well.

Partial funding has been provided by the Puffin Foundation.
