Designed for a devised theatrical experience about dreaming, this set invites the audience to immerse themselves in a colorful, hallucinatory world. They begin outside an internally-lit room with walls of quilted fabric that resemble bed sheets – igniting wonder about the realm within – and, after a short meditation, are invited in to dream. Inside, the floor is painted with three globular zones in the three primary colors, representing the three stages of dreaming. Platform elevations in secondary colors between the zones represent transitions from one phase to another. Throughout the space, I wrote ever so slightly misspelled words – wrong enough to raise an eyebrow but not enough to wake up from the dream (i.e. jakcet, automatac, thuoght, fantasay, dilusion, helpfull, oblivian, instrumant, hungury, persception, pinapple, elevan, swich, cantelope)
