"The Wandering House", With Artist Cecillia Cornejo

What does “home” mean to you? Does the word home conjure up a certain place or time or feeling? Today on Art Beat we talk to Cecillia Cornejo, artist in residence at Lanesboro Arts in Lanesboro, MN. Cecillia is a Chilean-born documentary filmmaker, artist and teacher who lives in Northfield, MN. Her new project that she has brought to Lanesboro is called the Wandering House. The Wandering House is an old ice fishing shack that Cecillia has converted into a mobile audio recording booth. She is exploring the themes of people and place and the concepts of belonging and home in rural communities in Minnesota. Participants are encouraged to tell their stories in The Wandering House, their own version of what home means to them, in their own words. I’m Bill Stoneberg, with artist Cecillia Cornejo on Art Beat.Original Air Date: 10/01/19.Art Beat is made possible by a grant from the Minnesota Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
