‘Home and Away’ – as both title and notion; journey and oxymoron – is an Episode that embraces the historical dissonance – of source and celebration (as already unveiled in previous generations of artists who have shaped our understanding of ‘British art’) – just as it betrays an equally telling association of subject, mood, and design.
Most of the artists in this Episode now call London their home and have enjoyed formative experiences as artists in the British capital. They often use the body as a signifier for an array of concerns, predicated upon various tributaries of status, and charge their practices as vehicles to emblematise certain class or identity friction. Patterns and paradigms of desire, and their ever-shifting geology of being and becoming, come together to collectively paint a tapestry of experience that reflects what it means to live in Britain today.
