Like the house built by Ann Peters’s father on a hill in eastern Wisconsin, House Hold offers many views: cornfields and glacial lakes, fast food parking lots and rural highways, Manhattan apartments and Brooklyn brownstones.

Against the background of this formative space, she charts her roaming story through two decades of New York City apartments, before travelling to a cabin in the mountains of Colorado and finally purchasing an old farmhouse in upstate New York.
