No Place Like Home
PV Tuesday 5 September: 5:30-7:30pm
Wednesday 6 September to Sunday 15 October 2023
ArtHouse Jersey at Capital House + unexpected locations around the Island
Curated by Rosalind Davis and Laura Hudson.
Capital House, 8 Church St., St. Helier, Jersey, Channel Islands, UK.
ArtHouse Jersey presents No Place Like Home, an ambitious multi-disciplinary exhibition that reaches beyond the gallery to locations around Jersey. For this exhibition twenty-three artists build a rich narrative that delves into personal stories, global issues, childhood memories, and speculative worlds as well as the bleak realities of the current housing market to look at a broader concept of home and what it might mean today.
For this exhibition ArtHouse Jersey has commissioned new work by Ana Čvorović (Bosnia/UK), Sasha Bowles (UK), Justin Hibbs (UK), Will Romeril (Jersey), Lindsay Rutter (Jersey), Lisa Traxler (Isle of Wight/UK). Alongside the commissions the curators have selected existing work by artists who resonate with the broad ranging themes of No Place Like Home including: Jananne al-Ani (Iraq/UK), Rachel Ara (Jersey), Jackie Berridge (UK), George Bolster (Ire/USA), Peter Jones (UK), Daria Koltsova (Ukraine/UK), Peter Liversidge (UK), Harriet Mena Hill (UK), Kate Murdoch (UK), Ravelle Pillay (South Africa), Saba Qizilbash (Pakistan/UAE), Martha Rostler (USA), Judith Tucker (UK), Joanna Whittle (UK), Eddie Wong (Malaysia/NZ) and Andrea V Wright (UK).
Home may be a sanctuary or a place of danger, it might be stable or temporary, intimate or shared, rooted for generations or a refuge in times of need. Home might be a person, place or planet, a community to which we belong or contested land no longer available to us. We may all yearn for a Home, but homes are full of histories, meanings and tensions; charged with political, social and economic realities they are subject to both external forces and internal dramas. ‘Home’ means something important and different to each one of us.When we think of home do we think of planet earth or something on a smaller scale? The shelter we find to sleep or the relationships that hold us together? Across the British Isles, homes are less affordable now than they have been at any time in housing history, nowhere more so than the setting for this ambitious exhibition, the Channel Island of Jersey.

Rosalind Davis & Justin Hibbs Collaborate with Jamal Sterrett | ITV Creates
Rosalind Davis & Justin Hibbs Collaborate with Jamal Sterrett
Rosalind, Justin and Jamal’s ident brings together two distinctly modern forms of Art for the very first time; Jamal’s otherworldly expression of the little-documented contemporary dance form ‘Bruk-up’ with Rosalind and Justin’s immersive sculptural Installations that confound perceptions of space.
This is a highly innovative collaboration with ground-breaking potential, pushing both artistic practices into new territories. It is a pioneering first, both in terms of a meeting between these specific art forms but also representing the premier exposure of this dance form on a mainstream cultural platform to a mass audience.
The creative collision of Contemporary Visual Art and Bruk-up Dance not only merges two complimentary artistic forms but also importantly extends the rich shared cultural heritage of British and Jamaican culture.
Justin Hibbs and Rosalind Davis are part of the The Clayhill Creative Forum 2021 online events.
5 March 3pm
Artist as entrepreneur – how to create your own opportunities and apply Creative Strategies to a rapidly changing environment
Featuring: Rosalind Davis, Justin Hibbs
After delivering a successful Online Summer School with Clayhill last year, Rosalind Davis and Justin Hibbs will join Clayhill for a reflection on the Creative Strategies needed by artists and creatives to make your own opportunities and adapt to the rapidly changing environment.
As a result the Coronavirus crisis, and the general acceleration of the digital world, we are looking to examine the effects this is having across the creative industries whilst exploring our overarching theme for 2021: ‘Physical/Digital
The Clayhill Creative Forum will offer an online space to come together and discuss the things that matter to us. A space to connect with one another and share thoughts and advice on what’s been working during this time in Lockdown. Using the platform Hopin to deliver this event, we have the capability to offer a variety of rooms or ‘stages’ and we will be using these to showcase our facilities, share resources, as well as host virtual discussions with our chosen panelists. Throughout the day you will also be able to access pre-recorded training sessions, contribute to discussions and learn more about the artists we have been working with here over the past few years.
There is a networking component integrated into the platform, which allows attendees to connect randomly with one another, a bit like creative speed dating or networking roulette! This is something we’ve all missed over the past year – those spontaneous and unplanned meetings at events, openings and shows, where you might end up talking to someone you’ve not met before. This is a digital version of that, so we hope by attending that you will have fun connecting and meeting someone new.
Join in on the whole day where there are loads of interesting talks and networking events. Just £5.
