Richard Woods, Holiday Home, 2017 (Pink and Orange) These one-third size ‘homes’ nestle in unlikely locations around the town, suggesting that no site is too small, difficult, or inconvenient for a holiday home. The media and housing industries constantly refer to ‘the housing crisis’, so increasing the price of land and accommodation. But the booming market for second homes shows that the so-called crisis of housing supply is in fact a crisis of economic inequality, sustained by the policies of successive governments. Many people have two homes, others can’t afford one.
