The Collective Dream Leaves // inkjet on paperboard, paper, jute twine, Guayusa leaves // 2008
The Collective Dream Leaves is a trans-dimensional, trans-personal human destiny manifesting process of the collective imagination. It is the first product from Avant-garde Archaics. This piece is a pseudo-product inspired by the traditional Ecuadorian social ritual or drinking guayusa tea each morning while sharing dreams. Guayusa is renowned for its ability to enhanc dream recall. I gave guayusa to as many people I knew who would accept it; they brewed and drank the tea regularly and we then gathered to each share a dream.
