The Chamber of Lost and Forgotten Dreams
What happens to the dreams people bring with them to Berlin —
and what becomes possible when we consciously let them go?
The Chamber of Lost and Forgotten Dreams is an immersive rite of passage for a group of 15 participants, leading them into the city’s underbelly: a symbolic threshold space where expectations are burned, certainties unsettled, and new, non-goal-oriented forms of dreaming are explored.
Through a carefully choreographed performative ritual, participants move through five phases — from initiation and a collective offering ritual to the shared reconstruction of a dream that grows sideways rather than forward. Guided by archetypal figures — The Guide and The Dreamkeeper — the experience weaves together storytelling, embodied presence, fire, sound, object work, and collective creation.
Created as an intimate, group-specific experience, dreams are not fulfilled here but composted; meaning is not explained but felt. The ritual does not seek resolution, but opens an unfinished, poetic reorientation.
Commissioned as a private immersive experience, the project demonstrates how ritual-based design can create powerful liminal spaces — inviting participants to let go, become productively unsettled, and collectively unsee the known.
