«Meeting physical force with soul force» – Martin Luther King, I have a dream, 1963

«Ke lorile, ke lorile ke mmona Mme bana baka» – Southern African folk song

(I dreamt I saw the mother of my children)

In her solo exhibition, Dineo Seshee Raisibe Bopape (*1981, Polokwane, South Africa) invites visitors to smell, taste, hear, see, feel, walk, sit and dream. In dreaming, the artist explores the connections between the suppressed and fragmented parts of material form, life and the self.

In preparing for the exhibition, Bopape immersed herself in the world of dreams, forests, land, water and stories of African rainmakers. It has been a practice of various indigenous cultures globally to administer and receive healing through dreams, in this process engaging various plant life forms. Soil is one of the recurring matters in the exhibition, as a repository of the universe's memories and potential and as a record of social, historical and political stirrings; a symbol of our collective connection to the nurturing essence of the dreaming Earth.

The exhibition (ka) pheko ye – the dream to come was created in co-operation between the Migros Museum für Gegenwartskunst and the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma in Helsinki.
