Eva will be joining us in the first week of stay at Unit 215. On Tuesday 2nd and Wednesday 3rd Eva will be setting up a photo studio and inviting all those she photographed in the Home from Home project to come and be re-photographed in the space. Rebecca Davies will be trying her best to re-create the subject's usual surroundings using a paintbrush. On Tuesday 9th at 6.30, Eva will also be talking about her book Home From Home, a collection of her photographs and written by Sarah Butler, which will be available in the space. Take a look at more of Eva's projects at: http://www.evasajovic.co.uk/
