Dreams of Flying

This installation was sparked by my realization that I’ve never dreamt of flying (despite my fascination with the species who live in the sky).  A dim, soft environment, white cotton, feathers (in the pillows, on the floor) and the sound of wings fluttering at the edge of awareness evoke metaphors of birds and memories of sleep to conjure dreams of being a bird rather than the super-human dream flight commonly experienced.

Site specific Installation. Shown at Urban Institute for Contemporary Arts. 12 x 10 x 20 feet.
