Dorich House: Fragments of truth

An exhibition room with large windows overlooking trees and a light wooden floor. Several white banners hang from the ceiling, one prominently displaying the text "REVEALING HISTORIES" and "Dorich House Museum." A table with a white cloth and brochures sits in the foreground, and a person views artwork on a far wall.

We are pleased to host an exhibition of works by Kingston University MA Curating Contemporary Design students from Thursday 26 to Saturday 28 February 2026.

‘Dorich House: Fragments of Truth’ unfolds as an experiment in curatorial stewardship. The exhibition explores the meaning of ‘stewardship’ within the context of museum collections. Through the gathering of objects as witnesses, the curators invite them to communicate their partial stories to visitors within this museum and its tumultuous history. Truth here is provisional, assembled through fragments, gestures, sounds and encounters. The display is treated as research, testing how drawings, texts, performances and pauses can cultivate care for humans and non-humans. Visitors become participants in meaning-making, tracing relations of justice and the rich history of ownership and memory across Dorich House. By decentring the authoritative voice and embracing uncertainty, the curators propose the museum as a living site where stories are shared, questioned, and collectively rewritten.
