Homebody

Premiering in the SF Bay Area in January 2022, Homebody was an immersive art experience that explored shifting identities while living under government-mandated isolation, inviting viewers to engage with Hueman’s work at the intersection of art and technology.

The original exhibit spanned over 20,000 square feet, allowing guests to journey through five cohesive installations in an astonishing space. Translucent floor-to-ceiling installations expanded upon Hueman’s Veiled Intent series of work, which play with themes of transparency, light, color and space. This 360 immersive experience was brought to dynamic life by projection mapping and augmented reality activated on visitors’ smart devices.

“As society excitedly returns to normal, we reflect on our collective experience in isolation. The past few years have affected the way we look at ourselves and each other; we have been existing together, apart. Through a global pandemic, political unrest, and a burgeoning climate emergency, we find ourselves in a perpetual state of crisis. Hueman encourages visitors to look inward as “Isolation” explores identity in the context of an unprecedented moment in time: What happens when we are forced to stay at home and face ourselves?” - Hueman
