Dreaming Protected Me
Dreaming Protected Me intertwines verbatim songwriting, sound design, performance, video design and sound installation to creatively retell stories of people who lived through armed conflict in Bosnia and Northern Ireland.
This project was generously funded by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland and The MAC, Belfast.
“Fascinating songs and stories that shine a light in the darkness.”
