Waking Dream

“Waking Dream” gathers seven artists and two collectives investigating a single theme, that is the symbols and tropes linked with the sphere of subconscious and their impact on the waking mind. The artists assume the oneiric dimension of the subject as an eclipse of the five senses: consciousness and sleep are opposite status of consciousness and they contaminate each other in the moment of waking. The starting point of the exhibition are the writings of Carl Gustav Jung who states that the individuals’ creativity is the result of processes of thought occurring during sleeping hours.
