Ongoing online project

www.daydreamers.biz

Launched in March 2017, Daydreamers is an ongoing project co-curated with Stephen Kent. Once a year, a new location is parasitised.

Daydreamers aims to unearth the possibilities of the semantic correlations between speculative spaces and the objects shown within them. The exhibitions are staged in flats accessed through holiday rental platforms; works of the participating artists act as parasitic props throughout the apartments. The action takes place secretly; no one can visit this exhibitions: they exist only through their photographic representation online.

Daydreamers explores online/offline relationships in art consumption. At different intervals, we choose a flat from places advertised on online platforms dedicated to short-term rental. We rent it for one night and set up an exhibition in it. Then we photograph the rooms using the same angles used to show the flats on the aforementioned sites. The action takes place in secret; no one can visit these ephemeral exhibitions that exist only through their virtual representation on daydreamers.biz

On November 1st, 2019, The Institute for Endotic Research Berlin hosted us for a Daydreamers Night
