About The Artwork

Barns are iconic of sanctuary. They offer protection in harsh landscapes, shelter in the cold. They provide a sense of place, a sense of home. They can provide ground for dreaming. When these kinds of buildings are part of your history but maybe not your present, they can become an object of longing or nostalgia - longing for a simpler time, a simpler life. For me, they signify home, family, and good, hard work. Hangs by gravity bar, all hardware included.

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.
