Destabilizing the romanticized concept of home, this exhibition will challenge the representation of this ideology by exploring various facets of home across multiple planes of identity including culture, gender, and sexuality. In …no place like home the works will both physicalize and undercut domestic connotations, becoming an anti-monument that calls attention to its own unstable foundation - this idea of home as comfort or discomfort. Dedicated to such ideas of home, this exhibit will include works that stem from the artist's personal childhood nostalgia and the unforgiving chokeholds such memories can create. \n\nTo learn more about this exhibition, click [HERE.](https://cah.ucf.edu/gallery/exhibit/no-place-like-home-by-tenee-hart/) END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://events.ucf.edu/event/3914385/critiques-career-express-drop-in/ DTSTAMP:20250909T100000 DTSTART:20250909T100000 DTEND:20250909T120000 LOCATION:Kenneth G.
