What does being at home mean to you?
In this open call exhibition, artists from Dorset, Hampshire, and Wiltshire were invited to reflect on the concept of home - a word that holds deeply personal, complex, and ever-changing meaning.
The resulting collection offers a rich tapestry of perspectives, with artists exploring themes of belonging, memory, identity, and place through a diverse range of artistic practices. From intimate reflections to bold interpretations, this exhibition captures the many ways home can be felt, seen, and imagined.
On Friday 21 March, Patch will open its doors for the launch of At Home. Come and celebrate the talented artists whose work will be on display and enjoy an evening filled with creativity, community, and conversation.
Enjoy a free welcome drink, kindly provided by Karma Drinks, and browse a photography print sale from Aberrations Collective - a group of third-year Photography students from Arts University Bournemouth - as they raise funds for their upcoming exhibition in London this summer.
Whether you're here to discover new art, support local creatives, or simply soak up the atmosphere, we'd love to see you there.
Meet the Artists
In case you missed it…
The response to At Home exceeded all expectations. In just 24 hours, more than 350 people walked through the doors, transforming a co-working space into a vibrant hub of conversation, creativity, and community. The exhibition not only celebrated diverse interpretations of 'home' but also prompted meaningful conversations about belonging, identity and the need for more art in Bournemouth’s town centre.
