Conceived around the notions of “home” and “homeland”, the group exhibition The Sky Was Candy brings together works by 24 artists from the Arter Collection. Produced in a range of media including painting, photography, installation, sculpture and video, these works – some of which have joined the collection only recently – invite us to (re)connect with the houses entrusted with cherished memories or painful sorrows, the earth that layers our belongings, the homes we leave behind or carry within us, and the foreign lands we journey toward in search of a better future. Gathered under one roof within a spatial arrangement that stimulates a ceaseless shift of perspective between interior and exterior, they compose a vibratory and multi-hued sensory field stretching between earth and sky, past and future, rootedness and uprootedness.
