Meredith Pritchard and Kate Clark - Dreambox​

​

Meredith is in their coziest bed. They are falling asleep. As they fall deeper into their slumber, dreams, nightmares, farts, and terrors take shape around them. This shadow puppet piece was born from a desire to make art, scream, and throw up, while experiencing chronic illness and fatigue. The run time is about 15 minutes.
