What does “home” mean to you? Join Dusanka Marsenic FRSA, Director of GALLERY 106, for an exploration of the influence and power of the notion of home on our lives at the Freud Museum.

GALLERY 106 is delighted to announce a solo exhibition of performance artist Biljana Golubovic and fine-art photographer Dragan Dragin, to be held at the Freud Museum, London. On the night of the exhibition the museum will be open to the public to enjoy while artists will try to evoke and recreate the feeling of home. For four hours the museum will become a home to its audience.

The exhibition, Peeling Away: HOME MEMORIES, featuring artists Biljana Golubovic and Dragan Dragin, explores the tender relationship between body and being, between house and home. Through documentary, photography, film, diary entries, and interviews, this exhibition explores the entwinement of material and immaterial, a relationship exposed particularly during processes of habitat decay and disintegration. As a home is demolished, it looks as if too are the memories of its inhabitants, the identity of whom is gradually peeled from the walls into insignificance.

The aim of the exhibition is to initiate a discussion about what “home” means, the feeling created by loss of home or being displaced, and its influence and power on our lives. Exploring the traumatic experience of losing their home and what it means to feel a sense of belonging, the two artists will present their rituals of recreating the notion of home.

Bread, wine and nibbles will be provided. Parking is free.

Date: Saturday 6 October 2018
Time: 17:00- 21:00
Venue: The Freud Museum, 20 Maresfield Gardens, London NW3 5SX
