Come home, heroine

Abstract

Come Home, Heroine is comprised of three installations that act as realms. The realms are home, traveling, and fantasy. Using the framework of the hero’s journey, (informed by interests like anime and manga) the exhibition’s three realms navigate the viewer through the narrative of the heroine journey. From her earthbound home to a boundless space, she seeks power to overcome familial trauma. Ceramic sculptures, drawings, and other three-dimensional forms bring shape to the narrative.
