Homecoming

By Simone X. Guo

“Homecoming” is a new public art installation by local Richmond-based artist Simone Guo at Brighouse Canada Line Terminus Station.

This multi-panel installation references the experience of the artist who has lived in Canada for two decades. “Home” is no longer understood as a physical place but as a feeling, where one’s heart goes and nerves are settled. With these vibrant and stylized Northwest Coast scenes, Guo reflects on the complexity of the concept of “home”, and shares the exhilaration of homecoming to express a new sense of space and immersion that continues to evolve.

The work will be on display until spring 2024.
