The Comfort of Home presents work from the Tweed Regional Gallery collection that explores home and connection to place as a sanctuary – our own individual corner of the world.

To be at home is to have a sanctuary of sorts—one characterized by familiar and localizable ways of being—through which the outside world can be temporarily set aside. It is a place where one feels sheltered from outside intrusions and considerations, and given a place to recollect oneself in a space of familiarity.”

Jacobsen, 2009.

Includes works by Cressida Campbell, Albert Moore, Margaret Olley, William Robinson, Robyn Sweaney, Hiromi Tango and more.
