My grandparents immigrated from Holland in the early 1950's, and settled in Saskatchewan. 36 Antrim describes my memories of my Oma's house. It is not lost on me that the objects that remind me of Saskatchewan while I live in Ontario are representations of the objects that reminded her of her home, Holland, while she lived her life in Saskatchewan. The things that connect us to family are often the things that make us feel at home.

Jennifer Akkermans is a Canadian artist, whose work examines the discomfort and anxieties of not feeling at home. In 2014, she moved from Calgary, Alberta, to Waterloo, Ontario, pursue her MFA at the University of Waterloo. Since then, she has used herself as a case study to examine how one might build a home for oneself somewhere new. Likening her own journey to the immigration of her grandparents from Holland in the 1950's, Jennifer realizes that, although the details are specific to her, her journey is not unique. She hopes that by being honest, and sharing this work, she might find others who long to feel at home as well.
