Building Belonging, Elsewhere Home is a layered exploration of home as a shifting, evolving process rather than a fixed place. Rooted in conversations around nostalgia, adaptation, and the emotional terrains of movement, the work holds space for the complexity of becoming—honoring ancestral resilience through colonial rupture while affirming Black and African identity in all its multiplicity. Through gesture, form, and story, the piece invites viewers to reflect on how cultural memory and inherited vessels shape who we are, who we’ve been, and who we are becoming. It celebrates the infinite capacity to reinvent and connect—across time, space, and spirit—with those we have met, those we are yet to meet, and those we may never meet, yet carry within us.
