Dream Apocalypse is an ongoing series of images which bring together my hopes and fears around the climate emergency.
The project grew from a micro-residency at the Self Publishing Lab and Priestman Gallery at Sunderland University in March 2023 where I examined the overlap between events and issues relating to the climate emergency and my nightly dreams, which I remember and record regularly.
The material generated is a heap-resource to work from, allowing for multiple iterations of montages to emerge in different formats and contexts; juxtapositions of facts, fictions and materials which explore the immeasurable nature of the climate emergency and how I situate myself within it.
Dream Apocalypse looks at the constantly shifting measure of this position through a process of drawing, printing, layering, copying, painting, collating montages and collections of images, through which I hope to draw out further conversations and collaborations.
Images shown are on a mix of papers, media include etching, digital print, risoprint, drawing, paint, all displayed on a wall 3 x 3m.
