What does it mean to love a homeland in a time of fractured geographies and contested histories? Is home a place of longing or a burden of history? In this exhibition, Anita Muçolli, Sevil Tunaboylu and Ian Waelder interrogate the contradictions of belonging, where love is intertwined with alienation and attachment collides with critique. By exploring exile, resistance and fluid identities, the artists question the meaning of home - not as a fixed place, but as a shifting terrain of politics and emotions.
The works in the exhibition What does it mean for a place to be loved? Reflect onthe impact of migration on personal and collective identity, the tensions between the embodiment of cultural heritage and assimilation, and the emotional traces of displacement. Through chance encounters and constant exchange, the participating artists unfold narratives specific to the experiences of second and third generation migrants who have inherited both the trauma and nostalgia of their families' homeland.
