I had a nightmare in dream
(Dream is my mother's name) This performance is reflecting my feelings about the current living situation in my country in comparison to other countries. I should mention that the performance is based on my childhood nightmare that I used to have frequently .A flat surface in the dark where all I could see was a single bench with a blown that was being blown into little by little until it suddenly exploded and this would keep happening.
My mother sometimes tells me stories of back when she was pregnant with me , She tells me about how our city was being bombarded during the Iran-Iraq war And I think this performance reflects how I felt as a fetus in her.
