About this Artwork
Collaboratively, Haby and Jennison construct miniature worlds that seek to eke out a space removed from its original context. Incorporating elements of collage and photomontage, alongside watercoloured forms both real and imagined, in these three posters created for Moving Galleries. A lone penguin in search of a new home, a singular fisherman seeking a new beginning, can be seen in ‘You know this isn’t the way home, don’t you?’; one of the first photographs of the Antarctic icebergs can be seen in ‘First time ever I saw you (Antarctica)’, and finally Nikolai Sutyagin’s actual thirteen-storey dacha in Arkhangelsk, Russia, with three potential new inhabitants from the animal kingdom, displaced and in search of a new home can be spied in ‘My dacha is 3 storeys higher than yours’.
