Title

Dreaming of home

Description

Working with Joshua Sofaer on his Workshops in People's Homes project, exploring the interplay between the intimate space of the artist's home, with the performative elements of the art workshop.

In the project, Dreaming of home, without the participant needing to leave the comfort of their own home, they were able to take part in conversation with Celia, during which she conducted a semi-structured interview concerning the home or space of their dreams. She later posted them an illustrated version of this dream.

"Dreaming of Home is the extraordinary possibility to see your imagination visualised by a painter. I had long been dreaming of a space, a space that I shall probably never be able to fully afford to create, except, with the help of Celia, I now have it. I can't think of many other opportunities where someone listens to you intently and then uses their skills to portray what they have heard. You get to see yourself through the eyes of another. It's a rare and wonderful thing."
​Joshua Sofaer.
