In Foreign Return, Neha Kale interweaves personal narrative with art criticism to explore the idea of home.
How do you inhabit spaces that were never built for you? Can you find home somewhere you were never supposed to belong?
As a child, Neha Kale migrated from India to the outer reaches of suburban Perth, an ancestral home, a colonial house in Goa, lingering in her memory. It sparked a life of relocation and movement around the world.
Mixing personal narrative with art and cultural criticism, Foreign Return explores the myth of the suburbs, colonial legacies, what it means to migrate to a stolen land, and changing ways we will need to conceive of homes and their ownership. In doing so she considers the works of artists who have helped her reimagine ideas of home, including Dayanita Singh, Artemisia Gentileschi, Tracey Emin, Cressida Campbell and Danie Mellor.
