Feeling the aliveness of the world, we create from the inside out. Shapes, colours, atmospheres – they come out through our hands onto the page, into a form. These are inner visions. The inside of a place and the inside of us – collaborating.

It’s a mysterious thing, this making process, but simple too; don’t get in the way. Just be open to the process. Be surprised by what you see. Sometimes, it’s ugly. Sometimes it’s beautiful. The feeling of a place is always there.

These dreamscapes carry stories that we want to share. Do you remember how to dream with places? Places can visit you in your dreams. We are new to remembering this. Art can be a way to remember, to connect.
