Home’s co-director Madeleine Preston passed away in March 2022 after a sudden illness. Madeleine’s knowledge and understanding of the visual arts and her work ethic were significant elements in the success of Home during an almost ten-year period.
I will be recommencing exhibitions at Home in 2023 with the first show in March featuring Madeleine’s work, commemorating the first anniversary of her passing.
