Where Daydreams Reconstruct Reality

Silver Can Art proudly presents “DAYDREAM: Halfway Between Here and Not”, a contemporary art exhibition exploring the fluid boundaries between reality and imagination. Running from February 28 to March 6, 2025, at Unihood x2 & Temperature Home in London, the show features works from 50+ international artists across various mediums, including painting, sculpture, textile, installation, film.

Inspired by Carl Jung’s concept of “active imagination”, this exhibition redefines daydreaming as a tool for subconscious exploration and self-individuation. In today’s fast-evolving technological landscape, where reality is constantly reshaped, daydreams become both an escape and a means of reconstructing the world. Personal memories, collective consciousness, and artificial intelligence intersect in this dreamlike space, creating a complex interplay of past experiences, shared narratives, and digital cognition.

Daydreams are often seen as unrealistic fantasies, brief escapes from reality. However, inspired by Jung’s concept of “active imagination,” this exhibition redefines daydreams as a tool for engaging with the subconscious and achieving self-individuation.

In this space, daydreaming becomes a hidden escape during wakefulness, drifting between reality and illusion. It reflects desires, stitches together memories, and serves as a creative process where consciousness meanders. Through the interpretations of the participating artists, the exhibition attempts to reconstruct our understanding of the real world, creating a multi-layered realm of imagination.

Here, perception merges with fluid narratives, and the boundaries between the inner and outer worlds blur. Everything is in a constant state of becoming, where boundaries fade and narratives fragment. The exhibition invites the audience to experience this “in-between” state—a liminal space where thoughts, memories, and desires converge, offering a new way of understanding both the world and the self.
