An installation consisting of 230 parts.
A piece of earth - only dirt on the shoes,
in possession an investment, in war a reason to kill.

The earth beneath our feet is both commonplace and contested.
Housing shortages are driving up prices, war is driving people away, borders are shifting.
Some live in houses with gardens, others in tents, containers, on the street.
A home is not a promise, but a privilege.
This installation makes visible what we take for granted but is rarely secure.
It reminds us that land can be property - or just a patch of earth underfoot.

Where do you live?
