A calendar made by Abi Meekel of another home
Designed by: Abi Meekel
These calendars are a series that came from an idea that I had to document my process of moving. Currently I am living in Amsterdam and I am always relocating from one house to the next because I don’t have a solid place to live. The time in each home varies, sometimes I have to leave in 6 months, sometimes 4 months, and if I’m lucky a year. On the day I move from my home all my furniture is packed into boxes around the house leaving something that once was my space into a vague nostalgia. I always take 12 pictures of every room in my home, with the boxes, the removed floors and empty light sockets and use my fingers and hands to “edit out” my packed things to try and replicate my old spaces. This is intended to create a lightness in the distressing moments of having to abruptly leave a home every couple of months because one can’t afford to rent out a permanent space or buy a home.
