Photographs using domestic subject matter, images of people and places we call home, of family, are what make up the images in this exhibition, encompassing a range of approaches to the concept home making. Nesting is an activity with attention to detail regarding home life, one in which is a quintessential domestic act. The act of nesting is the activity to nest, the exhibition will encompass the concept of building a personal space, one in which we call our own.
