Dreamland
This immersive multi-sensory experience combines light, moving image, scent and sound.
Overview
Visitors stepping through the doorway at Elizabeth's this October will enter Dreamland, an immersive multi-sensory experience created by visual artist Veronika Sola. The installation, which is running as part of Artweek Auckland, was inspired by "the beauty of flowers, the ebb and flow of nature, and the changes we face while journeying through life."
Dreamland invites visitors to retreat from the everyday and explore the concept of change and dreams in a space of light, moving image, scent and sound. Sola intends to ask the questions: Can the natural world of flora and fauna be our guide for navigating life and change? Is sudden change the threshold to realising ourselves and becoming better versions of us? Would you be who you are if you didn't dream and change? And if we're always changing, are we also always dreaming?
A series of workshops are being held alongside the installation to help visitors explore their senses. Join a blossom and wild flower workshop with a local floral artist, create your own scent at a fragrance design workshop, or sit back and enjoy a gin and tonic tasting masterclass.
