Conversation on… Dreams
A Dream Salon, a happening, a multi-sensory event: choose a participant’s dream and then discuss it while you see it painted live by artist Julia Lockheart. DreamsID.com
For millennia, dreams have been a source of philosophical enquiry as well as being represented in and inspiring art works. This captivating event will enable participants to consider what it means to find meaning in a dream, as well as to experience the returning of a dream to its visual form, while also posing questions about what it means to be human.
