Rising temperatures, erratic rainfall, and land exhausted by regimes of extraction, monoculture, and conflict have accelerated processes of soil desertification. Once framed as a distant threat, land degradation now advances across territories in Europe, exposing the limits of responses that often remain confined to cycles of recognition without repair. This is the fractured world we inherit—an estrangement from the living and a loss of our capacity to dream: not only to generate worlds in sleep, but to imagine other ways of relating that could heal and regenerate.

I Dream of Rain proposes dreaming as both gesture and method—as a relational and speculative practice capable of materializing new relations with the living world. The works in the exhibition explore water not only as a resource but also as a carrier of memory, ritual, and situated forms of knowledge. Rain appears both as a vital ecological matter and as a cultural and symbolic force associated with regeneration and continuity.

Through installations, images, sound, and architectural structures, the artists trace a dense ecology of relations linking infrastructures, ecological processes, and embodied ways of knowing. Emerging from diverse geographies, the works construct an environment where perception, memory, and imagination remain in continuous circulation, and where collective dreaming becomes a means to rethink how we inhabit and sustain the living world.
