In Becoming Home, artists Yujie Gao and Kadence Meredith invite you to reflect on what home means to you. Through voice recordings and drawings, your stories will form the heart of a generative audiovisual artwork.
Visit the Creation Cube at the George Bothwell Branch to take part:
Record a memory, story, or reflection about home means to you.
Create a drawing of what home looks like or feels like—real or imagined.
These intimate offerings will be transformed using AI-powered generative art into a collective portrait—one that breathes, listens, and responds to the emotional textures of your stories.
The final artwork will be shown at Nuit Blanche Regina on August 30, 2025, in downtown Regina. Come see how voices and visions from across the city weave together into a glowing portrait of “home.”
Gao Yujie is a media artist, performer, and researcher who explores time as an artistic material through site-specific performances, interactive installations, and data visualizations. Her generative, participatory work examines the materiality of duration and the elasticity of space and time in rule-based environments. Gao’s work has been showcased internationally in Canada, China, and Italy, earning an Honorary Mention at Ars Electronica 2022 and a longlisting for the 2017 Lumen Prize. She holds a PhD from the University of British Columbia in Digital Arts and Humanities and teaches Creative and Media Studies.
As a technological artist and computer scientist, Kadence Meredith strives to combine STEM with art to create experiences of wonder, ambition, and curiosity. Kadence recently completed her undergraduate degree in Computer Science with a concentration in Creative Technologies and is now a graduate student at the University of Regina researching artificial intelligence networks. Her areas of interest are creative coding, real-time media manipulation, augmented reality, and creating installations that encourage audience participation, immersion, and interactivity. With Saskatchewan being Kadence's lifetime home, she is excited to hear what home means to others in Regina.
