The experience of dreaming triggers unknown connections, images and metaphors, to create a new language for our fears and desires, away from the usual limitations of space and time. In this workshop, Nathalie Fillion continues to explore the realm of dreams as an endless source of inspiration for our fictions as well as our realities. Magdalena Barile, drawing from her own research on myths and chimeras, will bring artistic material from other disciplines to fuel the participants’ creative process. The goal is for them to find a new language to express their dreams, as much from an individual perspective as from our collective imagery.
