Dream Palace Cairo
29 December – 14 January 2024
Dream Palace’s Cairo residency was the next chapter following Athens. It offered one- and two-week programs of radical dreamwork and symbolic immersion.
Core elements included a showing of work in progress at the art centre Darb1718, designed to charge and share our collective dream research. Collaborating artists also developed a radio performance for NTS Radio born out of the residency.
Participants engaged in dream-sharing circles and communal dreaming practices with returning residents such as Evan Root, Daisy Campbell & Jussi Brightmore.

As well as inviting new residents such as Irish/Egyptian artist and creative director Kamelia Mckayed & Iraqi/British writer Wassim Alsindi. The Cairo Residency deepened our understanding of the architecture of Dream Palace with a concentrated residency in another site of significant cultural memory, Dreaming with the land and connecting through deep listening, local culture, and intention.
