THE SOUTHERN THRUWAY

Shared households have become a common living arrangement for many young adults, often driven by economic constraints. However, for some, the decision to live with friends instead of alone or with parents or a partner is a conscious choice. These shared spaces can become platforms for enacting disruptive politics, where concepts like common goods, shared work, and non-codified relationships come into play. The Southern Thruway is a video installation that weaves personal stories with political concepts, exploring themes of uncertainty, forced collectivity, and transientness. It also hints at the transformative power of domestic connections and unconventional love.
