Among All These Dreamers: a Communal Dream Circle

Among All These Dreamers: a Communal Dream Circle is part of the programming for , a group exhibtion at Transformer guest curated by independent curator Fabiola Delgado, that invites viewers to reflect on the power of dreams to shape our perceptions, connect us to cultural inheritance, and imagine futures.

This intimate program invites participants to gather in a Dream Circle –a space for sharing, listening, and interpreting dreams as both personal and collective narratives. Rooted in ancestral traditions and communal storytelling, the circle will explore how dreams shape our identities, connect us to cultural memory, and offer visions for the future.

Through guided prompts and open discussion, participants will reflect on the ways dreams influence our realities and how we can channel them into action. The session will be led by exhibition curator Fabiola R. Delgado and facilitator Inés Sánchez. Each participant will receive a small dream care package.
