There’s No Place Like Home, 2023
Making work across a variety of mediums, Dion Kitson explores working class values and the world around us with his trademark incisive wit.
No Place Like Home has Dorothy’s red shoes from the Wizard of Oz hung up on a telegraph wire, signalling for all to see. While the title reminds us of the film’s flights of fantasy, it also invites us to recall our own memories of home – the glimmers that we can return to. Here Dion Kitson boils these sometimes complex emotions down into a single gesture.
Dion Kitson’s recent exhibitions include Rue Britania, Ikon Gallery, Birmingham (2024); Shut Up and Stick to Football, Bomb Factory, London (2024), Precarious, Art Exchange, Colchester (2023), The Council House of Dion Kitson, Frieze, London (2022).
