From September 29 to October 5, workshops, lectures and performances on the topic of communal dreaming will be held as part of the City of Women Festival. All workshops will be held in English.
One of the "performances”, which is especially worth mentioning is the final event of DREAMLAB – “performance‘‘ ”Mala Kline: Dream Hostel CII”, which lasts 11 p.m and at which the audience is invited to sleep and spend the day at CII's Dream Hostel. Immediately upon arrival, participants are introduced to the practice of dreaming through imagination exercises. Participants are also given instructions on how to ask for dreams and how to remember them. When they wake up, the "performers" together with the audience open individual dreams and address the specific urgency that the dream reveals. They shape all dreams together collective dream map, which we open just as we open individual dreams and respond to the urgency that dreams reveal.
Collective dreaming it begins to reveal a different vision of community when more people are involved in the exercise, working together, than if the exercise was done with just one individual. You can leave and come back at any time during the "performance", but we recommend that you stay present, as the contracted presence encourages dreaming. DHCII is intended for all those who are ready to let themselves dream for a day and look beyond what they already know. If you think you're not dreaming, don't worry, dreams will come to you.
