Krejs, B. (2021, May 20). On Ideals of the Home - How We Fell (in Love) with Digital Image Worlds [Exhibition contribution]. PLATFORM AUSTRIA, 17. Internationale Architekturausstellung La Biennale di Venezia, 2021, Italy.
The physical world we live in is accompanied by a multitude of imageries that confront us with our domestic understandings of living environments, related image worlds, and with them, distinctly curated spatio-temporal experiences. It is here that platforms mediate between visual and tangible spaces, offering bridges between these parallel realities. The following pieces of writing will investigate forms of display in the seemingly quotidian spaces of habitation and home, and the way images function as mechanisms of staging idealised and controlled visions of these spaces. Putting into question what kind of spatiality platforms offer or allude to, these interventions will explore the extent to which respective imageries have the power to occlude, alter or distort our view of home, and the extent to which we are granted access to these spaces.
