The Public Dream

By  Emma Bolland 2025

Installation view of The Public Dream, an installation at The Art House comprising soft pastel wall drawings, video projection, sculptural screen build, lighting, and poetry. The installation used science fiction methodology to draw on the building's heritage as a Carnegie Library. Visitors were given hand held lights with which to explore and re-colour the drawings.
