“DOMESTICITY”

group Exhibition

VOLERY Gallery

DUBAI INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL CENTRE, united arab emirates

Domesticity was the inaugural group exhibition at Volery Gallery in Dubai International Financial Centre, curated by Sasha Bogojev with support from SAN Projects. The exhibition brought together 17 artists whose work explores domestic interiors and the emotional experience of home.

Presented in the context of the pandemic, the exhibition considered the home as a place of comfort, routine, isolation and uncertainty. Paintings offered different perspectives on familiar rooms and the lives unfolding within them.

Participating artists were Ojo Ayotunde, Ana Barriga, Pablo Benzo, Matt Bollinger, Deborah Brown, Mathieu Cherkit, Modou Dieng, Daniel Heidkamp, Yuichi Hirako, Jordy Kerwick, Sally Kindberg, Andrés Lozano, Andy Rementer, Fabian Treiber, Ivana De Vivanco and Guy Yanai.

The exhibition established a curatorial direction for the gallery’s opening by bringing different painting practices into conversation around one recognisable subject. The variety of interiors and viewpoints allowed the theme to unfold across the group, with SAN Projects supporting the exhibition’s production while Bogojev led the curatorial selection.
