Dreams - of dreams of dreams is an invitation to dream, act and radically imagine new common worlds.

The act of dreaming is positioned delicately between the real and the unreal. It is nourished by hope and desire, but also by fear and disillusionment. Daily realities guide and narrate our dreams, but could this also work vice versa? Dreams are potent and give shape to the as yet unformed, what would arise if we started those of individuals and communities to shape a collective dream?  When we dream together, we invent new paradigms, rules, and worlds, which could have a tangible impact on the present and initiate processes of transformation on a societal level. Would a common dream be able to reshape reality and change it?

This publication explores both night and day dreams, and the wish to reclaim the transformative power of imagination when it is fueled by a collective resolve to change present conditions and dismantle the status quo. The contributions of Dreams - of dreams of dreams by writers, artists, poets and dreamers are poetic and personal, as all dreams are. Through our dreams, both in sleep and the ones imagined when awake, we can equip the collective with unexpected tools and train our capacity of dreaming-in-common.
