Home is the core of place experience; it both contains us and is within us. Our intimate relationship with domestic space is imprinted upon us at an early age and stays with us throughout our lives, the interior memories continuing to interact with external reality. The book, film and wall text explore the interaction between place and memory, examining what is retained and what is lost in recollections of home.
