Home Pops

2021

25.5"w x 25.5"h x 8"d

Home Pops investigates the instability of language and its relationship to belonging, shelter, and identity. Words like house, home, or property carry an illusion of permanence—yet their meanings shift across culture, memory, and circumstance.

Using the visual grammar of architectural models, the work reimagines familiar symbols: a white house form becomes both refuge and container; a grid of parcels suggests order and displacement; miniature figures scatter like punctuation marks across an unfinished sentence.

By separating the signifier from the signified, Home Pops transforms the notion of home into a mutable sign—one that oscillates between object and emotion, between physical structure and the fragile space of memory. What remains is an open question: where does language end and lived experience begin?
