Go Home

Go Home is a collaboration between Beth Plakidas, Alison Terndrup and the Tampa Bay community. Combining formal, conceptual and chance elements, it balances the absurd with the beautiful. A seemingly creepy shack becomes a mentally ill reliquary in disrepair. Although encountering the installation might feel overwhelming at first, its objects link together to create a spiritual experience. Go Home resembles a strange cabin in the woods: look, but it may not be safe to touch. Housing remnants of old souls and unwanted things, this reliquary is a spiritual space. Each room contains numerous combines connected by their invisible ties to dog and hair.
