Picture
Zarina Hashmi, Home is a Foreign Place - Detail, 1999. Portfolio of 36 woodcuts with Urdu text printed in black on Kozo paper, mounted on Somerset paper.
What does home mean to you?  For Zarina, the images in Home Is a Foreign Place serve as a visual vocabulary of things related to home.
She created abstract renderings of words like“afternoon,”
“hot-breeze,” and “threshold.”

Make a list of 10 words that remind you of your home (or homes).
These can be nouns, adjectives, and verbs; they can be
tangible objects or abstract ideas.
