What actually makes a place home?
Is it the structure of a house, or is it the memories, emotions and relationships that are connected to it?

In this work, the meaning of home is explored through the personal stories of elderly people. Their perspectives reveal four recurring connections: belongings, time, place and people.

All the stories together form a puzzle. A line that slowly takes shape: home begins with yourself and is defined by your time.

But time is not tangible. What you see is different from what someone else sees. To visualise this, the mirror is literally taken apart: glass, reflective layer, backing layer. Between the components, space emerges. Time becomes visible as the space in between.
