Patrick Pound: Dream Vitrine
Curated by Daniel Mudie Cunningham. Imagine if artworks could dream. In Dream Vitrine, artist and collector Patrick Pound reimagines selected pieces from the Wollongong Art Gallery collection as ‘sleeping objects’, wondering what dreams might arise within them.
A painting of the sky might envision endless blue expanses, while a historic watercolour of flames might produce visions of fire’s flickering allure and menace. Max Dupain’s famous photograph of the sleeping sunbaker might dream of jigsaw puzzle boxes full of found photographs of beachcombers.
