Lava Mae proposes what they call radical hospitality, providing showers and care for those living in a condition of homelessness, bringing dignity and hope to those trapped in the ever-growing income divide of contemporary society.

Believing that art would bring voice to their guests, Lava Mae and SOUND MADE PUBLIC developed a public art project called Coming Home, collaborating with an augmented reality artist and creating a physical presence that visitors could engage with in a public space.

With over 30 personal interviews conducted with those living without a home or formally homeless, these intimate audio portraits offer a bridge to the sense of shared humanity that can be so missing in our day-to-day interaction with the world around us.

Coming Home garnered international press coverage and has continued its impact in prominent gallery spaces and other public places.
