Home Values

Work exploring the rootlessness caused by housing inequities. What makes a "Home" when, like myself and many African American women, struggle to own a home or even rent and keep an apartment? This new work includes my "Apartment Installation," sketches and prints from my "Home and Other Horizons" series, and an interactive "Housing Values" card game. What does home mean to you?

CARD SORT

Thanks for taking part in this card-sorting activity. Card sorting is a simple and fun way to help us understand what you value in your housing. The goal is to group all the cards and give each group a name. 

HOW TO PLAY: 

  • Tell us a little about yourself about your self. You don’t have to include your name, just a little about what makes your family special on an index card.

  • Create groups. Look at the cards one at a time and place them in different groups. You can create as many and as few as you want. 

  • Name the groups you have created; There is an “I am not sure” group if you are unsure where to put certain cards. 

  • SHARE BELOW

(Time and Rules) 

There are NO right or wrong answers 

The session has no time limit, but we recommend spending about 15-25 minutes. 

Your response will help us understand how everyone uses and selects housing and makes you, the user, a part of this collaborative design process. 

Thank you!
