| The 1998 Dream Art Exhibition in Oahu, Hawaii (part of the fifteenth annual Conference of the International Association for the Study of Dreams), featured the work of twenty-three artists, of which sixteen were from the Hawaiian Islands and exhibiting with ASD for the first time.
Jurors Betsy Davids and Richard Russo selected a wide range of work for the show, which included ceramic sculpture, masks, assemblage, artists books, dream quilts and digital photocollage as well as painting, collage and works on paper.
Among the more unusual pieces were two interactive installations, Victoria Rabinowe’s "Mandala Dream Shrine," which included handmade dream books, and Alshaa T. Rayne’s "Bad Dream Angel," a life-sized painted mannequin. Viewers were invited to write their disturbing dreams on strips of cloth and give them to the angel, who wore them like wings on her shoulders. |
