Dream interpretations: Part 6
What starts as an afternoon at the indoor pool quickly turns into a slippery spectacle: a banana stuck in someone's hair. How did it get there? Who put it there? It doesn't matter – the main thing is that it tastes good.
Shown here is a scene from It will be my treasure to have your dreams. This film originated from the 2023 exhibition Das Hotel ein Traum at the Kurhaus Bergün – an exhibition centered on the theme of dreams, where visitors could dream on-site. A total of 14 dreams submitted at the hotel during the exhibition period were subsequently brought together by several artists in the film.

“I’ve just come from the pool and am drying myself off when I notice my hair is much longer than usual and feel sticky clumps in it. It’s really matted, my hair. Dreadlocks, I think; someone has braided dreadlocks into my hair without me noticing. Actually, it’s just a single dreadlock. After a while, I pull at it and notice it coming away from my head. It’s sticky; it’s a banana pressed around a strand of hair. A dark, squashed banana – not a dreadlock – in my hair. Gross.”
