What if the way through the stomach is not to the heart, but to fantasy?

Could a specific amount of fried gouda affect our dreams?

Exploring the relationship between digesting and dreaming, The Sea of ​​Cheese challenges Europe’s contemporary, future or parallel political
imagination. The title of the exhibition has been inspired by a
para-scientific theory according to which eating certain types of cheese
can intensify our dreaming experience. The exhibition thus focuses on
the impact of food on the process of creative thinking, both from an
individual and collective perspectives. What makes dreams exist
independently of our declarations and worldviews, is there a culinary
logic behind dreams and nightmares?

The exhibition offers ingredients, recipes and diets that can,
literally and symbolically, stimulate alternative scenarios and
immersion in dream visions. Products and objects such as celery, teeth,
broth, monster, blood or wax suddenly take on new meanings, as in the
Egyptian Dream Book, introducing us to a surreal atmosphere in which the
dreamt and digested matter mix and mingle.
