The fabric of our time spans many universes: those of walking corpses, ghostly swallows and liquefied paradises. At once distant and eerily close, the worlds brought together in *DWELLING ELSEWHERE* – by turns alienating and dystopian, at other times warm and dreamlike – tell of a shared place and moment: the here and now.
