{"product_id":"dums-pt-6","title":"Dums pt. 6","description":"What makes these domino sets so striking is that they take two incredibly familiar materials, red brick and household sponge scouring pads, and bring them together in a way that feels immediately strange. We recognise the materials, but we no longer quite recognise the object. The domino becomes uncanny: familiar enough to draw us in, but foreign enough to make us question what we are looking at. And there is something important about using a game to hold these materials. Dominoes can evoke family gatherings, community and intergenerational play, while the materials themselves can suggest the home, domestic labour and the physical structures we inhabit. So there is this tension between play and inherited experience. Can something as innocent as a game also carry memories of hardship, domestic labour, conflict and generational trauma? By transforming these materials into objects of play, the artist creates an uncanny space where the domestic becomes strange. The work asks us to consider how homes and household memories can hold experiences that are passed between generations, even when they are not explicitly spoken about.\r\n","brand":"Liam Van Der Heever","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68287442583773,"sku":"liam-van-der-heever-dums-pt-6-20261010","price":14317.5,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0747\/7261\/1293\/files\/121373_1791636152_43843028_7403ceea-7b92-497d-8e6f-43ab0d1a7908.jpg?v=1793007624","url":"https:\/\/latitudes.online\/products\/dums-pt-6","provider":"Latitudes Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
