Dwelling

Taking dwelling not as a fixed condition, but as an ongoing practice of relation, the exhibition reflects on how ideas of home, belonging, identity, and community are being reshaped by movement, migration, and an increasingly interconnected world. Across different cultural and material perspectives, the works consider how we inhabit spaces, histories, environments, and one another — and how forms of belonging might emerge within states of uncertainty and change.

Drawing also on the East Asian notion of impermanence, DWELLING approaches belonging not as a final destination, but as something continuously formed and transformed. Rather than asking simply where we live, the exhibition turns towards a more immediate question: how might we learn to dwell together in a world that is never still?
