Dreamcatcher at Two Diamond Art Farm

 

An Invitation:

Come and enjoy an evening at the Artfarm

 


Sunset Stroll at Two Diamond Artfarm, North Saco

Saturday August 17, 6-9pm

 

Wander at your leisure through the grounds of the North Saco Artfarm and feast your eyes upon the sculptural works of Artfarmer Patrick Pierce while witnessing the evolution of the Dreamcatcher.

 

Experience the magic of communicating with nature. In this multi-sensory exhibit, join a traveling dancer and local participants as we collectively tap into the roots of communication among trees and people.

 

Fall under the Dreamcast of The Rhizomatic Collective Unconscious Dreamcatcher – a performance installation by Cilla Vee Life Arts

 

Who: Guest artist CillaVee works in collaboration with community members to present an environmental art installation and performance of movement, poetry and sound.

 

What: Sculptural dreamcatcher woven together in real-time as dancers perform with ambient music and vocal recitative.

 

As above: so below — neural networks of the mind and collective unconscious are mirrored beneath our feet. Within the forest floor mycorrhizal fungi weave plants and trees together into one resilient organism — a whole of which we are a part.

 

Recurring forms in nature find expression in archetypal myths and dreams. The dreamcatcher originates from indigenous North American Ojibwe traditions and was shared broadly over time to become a recognized spiritual talisman in the dream world.

 


All community members who would like to participate in the Dreamcatcher

performance are invited to attend a “Crash Course” workshop on the Artfarm 

that afternoon at 3pm.

This work explores the crucial networks and systems of unification and connection in the natural environment and in human society by comparing mycorrhizal fungi with the neural networks of the mind and our Collective Unconscious – its expression in archetypal myths and dreams.   Project Context – The Rhizomatic Collective Unconscious Dreamcatcher is part of a larger on-going, continuously evolving project entitled RAW-(Material), which explores the raw materials of th

Dreamcatcher Beginnings

From this a network of supporting threads is woven, from which to attach the materials.     I cut an assortment of white fabrics into long strips using spiral and wavey or zigzag shapes. These were then woven through the net structure.     Once in situ at Lake Eden, the Dreamcatcher was hoisted up into a tree on the island and attached to branches about 15 feet high.     Througho
