In-Habit

By  Oliver Getley 2019

In-Habit was a collaborative exhibition and investigative project that occupied the home of David and Alex, responding to a series of visits, conversations and reflections that developed over a period of 10 months.

Sophie Bullen, Toby Kilby-Pollard, Jenny Handley, Henry Cottam, Sam Lanchin and Oliver Getley were invited by the residents to consider the house and its context. The project manifested in an exhibition situated in their home in Leeds; the artists collectively developed new objects, structures and spatial interventions resulting in a blurring of ownership and public and private space.
