“Home Sweet Home (And Other Suchness), Luss’ first solo exhibition, is a newly realized, site-specific installation for Lowe Mill. The title plays on the often-invoked idiom – the return to the comfort of home after an extended absence – revealing the artist’s interest in places and objects that activate unforeseen memories. Through “reverse excavation,” to use the artist’s words, Luss forges the archeological aspects of a place with her own biographical history. The resulting work investigates the disruptions of relocation, and on another level, the importance of finding safe spaces necessary to realize potential. Inventive and personal, the work in the exhibit is Luss’s response to places of her past that are now, through her artistic process, in her present.”
