PARLOUR’s inaugural exhibition If these walls could talk was an invitation to engage with artworks in a domestic setting.
The home is the staging of everyday life and rituals; it serves as a container for experience, memories and dreams and becomes an extension of its occupants. The aim was to employ the domestic space as a medium in which to tell stories through the exhibited artworks and objects.
