Dream Home creates an illusion of architecture situated in imagination more than in reality. Projected
on the slimmest of possible façades, the dollhouse in the video, plays out our most basic fears
about shelter. The piece creates a convolution of interior/exterior, miniature/architecture, solidity/fragility.
Stepping through the open door, one leaves the dream space behind to awaken on the other side.
