This exhibition invites you to wander from site to site unearthing experiences, feelings and histories that have been overlaid, overlooked, constructed and concealed.

There is nothing safe in houses. We consider the omnipresence of buildings present or absent that insistently and threateningly keep us within their sight and we show how even the nature we escape to is just another constructed site culturally containing and constraining us in an endless replay of preordained ways of being.
