Dream Archives | INSPIRE PROJECT 2020

The launch of the workshop entitled "Dream Archives: Dreams as a primal material for artistic production and practice" was realised online on July 6, 2020, with the introduction to the thematic and research field of the workshop, as well as the recording of participants' dreams.

On July 13, the collective and performative part of the workshop began. 

Mary Zygouri, following open pedagogical method, approached the plan of cooperation and joint learning in the fluid urban and natural landscape of Thessaloniki. 

The hidden paths of water in the city, in relation to the fluidity of the Dream, become the field of action and artistic experimentation of the workshop. 

Through performative and site-specific practices, the collective experience -sensory, aesthetic, associative, momentary, dreamy- interacted and co-shaped the works of the 18 young artists presented in the exhibition.

Fluid dreams, dreams that remain, dreams that are co-created and co-defined, dreams that gain substance and become primal material for artistic production and practice constitute the exhibition presented at MOMus-Experimental Center for the Arts.

The exhibition includes works of this year’s invited artist, Mary Zygouri, selected from her recent artistic production, dating from 2014 until today, that are directly related to the content and practices of the workshop entitled "Dream Archives".

Τhe exhibition also includes new artworks produced during the workshop by the young participating artists or recent Fine Arts School graduates
