[Detail]

A collaborative practice-based group, developing ideas through informal meetings, email and Whatsapp chat. The first public outcome is DOMESTIC MONSTERS at the Constance Howard Gallery (April - May 2022).

We have been talking about new discourses around the domestic and making, and have been bookmarking, tagging, saving, sharing, and watching new things emerge in the world, new relations, languages and modes of life and praxis in the home. […] ways we exist in and relate to our domestic spaces have changed and shifted in a myriad of different ways for us all over the last year.

We want to kickstart something - share ideas and work and positions, etc - but what it is, we are not quite sure yet.

Connections have emerged. Ways of thinking about what it means to maintain a practice that emerges from and is shaped, inspired and (at times) limited by domestic space and labour. Making this (unfinished/ongoing) work public acknowledges the invisible, ad hoc and responsive infrastructures of support, conversation and ‘thinking together’ that has gently coaxed these monsters into being.

DOMESTIC MONSTERS are Ruby Hoette, Juliette Kristensen, Katherine May, Laura Potter, Corinne Quin, Naama Schendar, Nina Trivedi
