Join us on the fall equinox for the opening of Creative Time’s latest commission Cosmologyscape by artists Alisha B Wormsley and Kite September 22 2-5PM The Plaza at 300 Ashland

Experience Cosmologyscape by artists Kite (@kitekitekitekitekite) and Alisha B Wormsley (@alishabwormsley) at 300 Ashland Plaza. Come rest upon the cluster of benches wrapped in vibrant mosaics and growing plant life created through the algorithmic interpretation of dreams shared on cosmologyscape.com. ✨💫

While dreams are available to everyone, they are shaped by conditions outside ourselves—our access to the space, time, and resources that allow for good rest. Data shows that dreaming, too, is inequitable along the intertwined categories of class and race. Sleeping in public, for racialized bodies in particular, has long been deterred through loitering laws and hostile architecture – the spikes and knobs and barriersdivets that keep people from sleeping, sitting, gathering, and staying. In response to this, Cosmologyscape poses the questions, if dreams are the material used to build in waking life, whose dreams made the environments we live in today? Whose dreams might allow for a vision of a future everyone can thrive in?
