'Homes Horizons' is a diptych composed of images that come to life with an interactive AR (Augmented Reality) experience. The AR is more than just a part of this artwork by Fatimah Tuggar; it is essential to the artwork. Initially premiered at Tuggar's Davis Museum solo exhibition of the same title in 2019, it has been selected to be featured in Vancouver, Canada, at the 2025 Capture Festival, promising an engaging and concurrent experience for the audience of the current, the historical and the imagined. This app gives access to 'Encounters' within a mediated AR landscape that bridges the viewer to other imagined times, spaces, and places that are tied to and implicate our present reality. It advances the exploration of the artist's themes of human horizons and how we change our constructions of dwellings, cultures, and society as we also change. Tuggar's 'Homes Horizons' continues her exploration of the impact of technologies on culture, a theme she has been developing in her artworks for three decades.
