The Home Sweet Home exhibition explores the world of liminal spaces, places of transition that we pass through without paying them any attention: corridors, halls, waiting rooms or parking lots. Seemingly innocuous, these spaces, often empty and impersonal, are almost timeless. Stripped of their original function, they evoke a sense of floating strangeness, somewhere between disquiet and fascination. This aesthetic is echoed in the concept of backrooms in digital culture: a fictitious, infinite universe of banal, empty rooms in which we find ourselves trapped, as if by a bug in reality. Inspired by these ambiences, the Home Sweet Home exhibition takes visitors on a journey where the familiar becomes strange and everyday landmarks become blurred.
Accompanied by artist Kévin Ardito, 4th-grade students from the Gilbert Chabroux middle school designed a video game accessible in the exhibition via an arcade terminal. The game station offers visitors an immersive, interactive experience. Students in 1ère arts plastiques at Lycée Pierre Brossolette were involved in selecting the works to be exhibited, as well as designing the exhibition itinerary in the Parc St Antoine.
Home Sweet Home is part of the “Jeunes commissaires” project initiated by IAC. This artistic and cultural education program enables students to design an exhibition based on works from its collection. The project is supported by LPA Mobilités, the Metropole of Greater Lyon - EAC et territoires program, and Cités éducatives (Ville de Villeurbanne).
