Artor Jesus Inkerö: Home Is Where My Mouth Is

In Artor Jesus Inkerö’s solo exhibition Home Is Where My Mouth Is images and actions materialize as words, and text functions as gesture. Using house paints on paper, the artist has inscribed phrases that are deeply personal, political and associative, such as Architectural Sodomy, Home is Where My Mouth is, and Extreme Form of Hedonism. 

Besides invoking linguistic structures, the handwriting – by virtue of its material – suggests home renovation or remodelling. In the displayed works, architecture is linked directly to the body and corporeal experience. 

The exhibition additionally marks the premiere of Inkerö’s new video piece made in collaboration with various artists.
