About the Deep Roots Theme

The World Tree sprouts at the beginning --  new shoots emerging, roots deepening -- at the source of the dark waters, the portal of creation  -- IChing (Karcher)

Roots are not in landscape or a country, or a people, they are inside you.  — Isabel Allende


Like the roots of a tree, our roots connect us to what nurtures and grounds us, providing foundational support for growth and expansion. 


What we are rooted to emerges in our dreams.   Dreams of people, places and things that form us.  The wisdom of elders passed down in liminal narratives.Transcendent dreams that illuminate connections with clarity.

Deep roots are the ancestors. They are with us, carried in our bodies, our beliefs. Our ancestors expand beyond our familial lineage into the lineage of our communities, our nations, our humanity.  

Our deepest roots are an ephemeral umbilicus that connect us to the  great mothers, Earth and her oceans, her lands, deserts and mountains, streams and lakes, plains and canyons. Our deep roots are dendrites — limbs of extension, expansion and connection that connect us to the universe.

Everything you see has its roots in the unseen world. …The source they come from is eternal, growing, Branching out, giving new life and new joy. Why do you weep? The source is within you And this whole world is springing up from it. -- Rumi

This dream-based collaboration enhances the dream experience as something new emerges through the creative process.


THANK YOU TO EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATED.

This work is a collaborative creation that exists because of the participation of dreamers and musicians coming together to connect in the realm of dream. Thank you to the dreamers who shared dreams and to the producers who set the dreams to music. Together we created a unique dream expression and experience.

You can hear the sonic installation in the halls of Rolduc Abbey where art will be displayed during the dream conference June 8 - 12.
