“The House That Jack Built” is an exhibition that explores the collection of artist’s works in the NIAD Art Center’s shop and the relationships that exist among them. The title of the show takes its name from the folk song This Is the House That Jack Built, which tells the story of a house, built by Jack, that indirectly links many other people and things through a domino effect of chain relationships, that all circle back and initiate from the house that jack built. This selection of artists and their work examines ideas of place, dwelling, and structures, both formally and metaphorically, and how, in proximity, they create new narratives of connected-ness and extensions of the self to others.
