Eye of the Dream

David O’Reilly

Eye of the Dream is an immersive audiovisual installation

It intends to present the process of life from the Big Bang to the modern world, through the act of dancing. Everything becomes part of this choreographed dance, spontaneously arranged in a certain paradigm: interfacing with everything, surrounded, compromising, expanding and changing through individual actions and interactions.

Running time: 32 minutes, 56 seconds
