HOMECOMING! presents:
In-Transit: Station Domination 
Texas & Pacific Station, Fort Worth, Texas

Exhibition: July 20th, 6 - 9 pm 
HOMECOMING! presents its new series of video art exhibitions entitled In-Transit. Moving out of the standard gallery setting and into various public locations throughout the DFW area, In-Transit will showcase video works from regional, national and international artists. 

Each installment of the series facilitates a site-specific location as catalyst for video selection and will create an atmosphere that integrates works exhibited, locale, and architectural form with viewer experience. In-Transit will generate a relaxed forum for viewing and discussion, while reaching out to a wider public audience.

The first installment in the series, Station Domination, will be held at the Texas & Pacific train station in Fort Worth, Texas on July 20th 2012. The Trinity Railway Express will enact as both a physical and metaphorical link between Dallas and Fort Worth art scenes, as exhibition visitors are encouraged to arrive via train. Thusly, the video selections showcased at the T & P station correlate to modes of transportation and connectivity. 

The train becomes not only a matter of convenience and experience, but also a function of art itself. Fort Worth based artist Terri Thornton will use the train in a live performance / video, which will act in conjunction with her upcoming exhibition where is the power. 

HOMECOMING! is also pleased to announce that artist Koki Tanaka, who was recently selected to represent Japan in the 2013 Venice Biennale, will be included in the exhibition.

HOMECOMING! is an assembly of artists and creatives who seek to develop collaborative projects in conjunction with their individual artistic production.

The ethos of artmaking is too often focused on the construction of the permanent object – a paradoxical pursuit, rooted in self-deception and illusion. Nothing is permanent, only the ephemeral moment is real. 

HOMECOMING!, through shared experience, will transform the ephemeral into the tangible. We believe this transformation is paramount, and is the true nucleus of artmaking. Once this is understood, artists will regain the agency we so often relinquish without hesitation.

HOMECOMING! seeks to establish initiatives and venues in which all manner of creative individuals can operate as co-collaborators engaging in the practice of this agency. Interactive and participatory, HOMECOMING events create an environment to springboard artists into action and build networks for future collaborations. This fortification of creative resources will reposition the artist as an individual that shapes cultural discourse, rather than a member of society that merely reacts to it.
