Call Home
How do you fillet a fish? Get over a heart-break? Remove a tic? If you have burnt the bottom of a cooking pot, can it be saved? How do you repair a bicycle chain? Shine shoes? Prepare for a disaster?
Call home! At our temporary phone booth café you have the possibility to make a brief call ”home”, to one of our assigned operators. They stand ready to accept your call.
Call Home is the first part of an ongoing social project in which Poste Restante work in collaboration with The Non-Existent Center. In a time of polarization and detachment, Call Home aims to serve as a messenger between the rural and urban areas, across generations and past trajectories. Call Home addresses our most human need of attachment; how every day experiences can be regarded as competence and serve as a basis for identification.
Call Home was performed at Index festival Letting the Days Go By in Stockholm, the 18th of June 2018.
