Adel Abidin: Their Dreams

Six Channel Video Installation

Their Dreams is composed upon interviews with Arabic children from different conflict based areas such as Iraq and Palestine, and illustrating that into drawings reflecting their dreams. If it were possible, what would like to receive from the rest of the world? The drawings are converted into animations for this multi- layered installation. Together with the animations, the children’s shadows are also projected to the space. In addition to their drawings, their silhouettes and movements are visible, and voices are audible.
