Sian Bonnell & Maria Hedlund uses the moment of self-awareness nowhere else but in their own homes, where they spend the most time. In their works, the domesticity explored as spaces are presented as an uncompromising approach from a private space that regards to one’s root of comfort as the primary field of shaping one’s identity. The viewer can feel voyeuristic and a deeply uncanny resemblance however it is characterised by a carefully staged, surrealistic tableaux.

The interspace connection spin throughout the photographs shows the artists’ interaction with their home and household to find their identity as well as being in isolation – not only relishing the humor of everyday objects but also becoming frightened by its moment of familiarity.
