De quoi rêve Dakar?

RAW Material Company invites you to a presentation by Vincent Chomaz on Friday June 29th, 2018 at 5:30pm.

After Berlin and Peking, "De quoi rêve Dakar?" is the third installment of a long-term project about collective imaginaries which started in 2015. In Dakar, this research residency constitutes of collecting dreams and researching the place of dreams in Senegalese cultures and divination practices.

This residency project is part of a long-term research project, titled Rêves, which started in 2015 and focuses on collecting dreams as a way to explore the way a territory - and its political, social and cultural realities - affects its inhabitants. Referencing psychoanalysis and oneiromancy, "De quoi rêve Dakar" aims to create an oral history of the city, connecting Dakar to the unconscious of its inhabitants.
