is making its debut, showcasing a fresh collection of work from artists George Gibson and Grace Collins that dives into the quirky concept of breaking the fourth wall. You know, that thing where actors suddenly decide to chat with the audience instead of sticking to their scripted lines. Using a mix of printmaking, sculpture, and a dash of self-publishing, this duo is here to ponder whether that direct connection can also happen in a gallery. Spoiler alert: you're already part of the experiment just by being here.

Taking cues from HOME's rich history and its film programme, along with the delightful behind-the-scenes antics of DVD extras and the rabbit holes where film fans find themselves, this exhibition is all about the art of world-building and fandom. It's a gathering for artists, cultural enthusiasts, gallery-goers, and yes, even you. Prepare to see yourself reflected in the shiny artworks, grab some manifestos and memorabilia, and contemplate how we might just shatter the metaphorical walls of this gallery space. After all, does it even have four walls to begin with? Now that's food for thought.
