“Many people are embedded in ideas of spatial nesting scales, especially in geography and architecture. Migration cuts through that, because of the relational dimension – I could be closer to someone overseas than to my neighbour. Migration has a very vibrant uprooting of the distance between spatial and relational, and provides innovative ways to reconsider the home. Migrants are both desperately seeking a home, and yet that desire is fraught with a sense of loss and perhaps also an obsession to have a home”.
