News From Home is an ongoing art project by Anne Fehres (The Netherlands) and Luke Conroy (Australia), an artist duo based in the Netherlands. Since 2018, the project has taken place in 11 countries, each time created in close collaboration with local communities. The works transform collective memories and everyday narratives into highly detailed collages that combine photography, video, archival research, and both digital and material forms of image-making.

In 2025, the 12th edition of News From Home takes place in Yunotsu, Shimane Prefecture, Japan. During a two-month residency at AKIYA AIR (November–December), Fehres and Conroy work with residents, artisans, and their own documentary photographs to create an artwork. This piece will draw on Yunotsu’s enduring craft traditions, its rich historical heritage, and its ongoing forms of cultural and ecological renewal. By weaving together fragments of past, present, and future, the project seeks to create a shared reflection on the town’s layered identity.
