The Emotional House
Urban & Community Environments

Public Installation

As a consequence of globalization, mass urbanization and displacement, home is experienced in a fluid way. Home no longer has a constant shape but adjusts to shifting conditions in society and changes in the surrounding physical environment. The installation asks how the flooding of London might change the way we inhabit domestic spaces. It explores home as an intimate stage, created through our individual desires and feelings, the physical structure being less important than the feeling of home. ‘The emotional house’, is a soft structure that holds collective memories; it shows its fragility through reacting to the surrounding environment, as rising levels of carbon dioxide emissions in the atmosphere trigger a change in colour from blue to yellow.
