Through it we searched for ways trauma can be settled, and joy found.

Now, while we search for a permanent home for the installation on a bespoke site, we've decided to make the installation available in its original form for anyone who wants to revisit it (or who missed it the first time round!)

The installation explores the queer possibilities of the House of Atreus, a family in Greek myth who can’t seem to stop killing each other. Rather than one definitive retelling, we offer dozens of fragments you can follow in your own journey through their world and ours.
