ADMISSION: Free with RSVP to info@thecjm.org. Space is limited and registration is recommended.
Give yourself time to reflect and start off your New Year with lunchtime sessions of guided journaling. Each one-hour session of free writing will be interspersed with prompts.
This program is presented in conjunction with Daria Martin’s immersive installation Tonight the World, which is inspired by her grandmother’s dream journal entries, amounting to over 20,000 pages chronicled for the purposes of Jungian psychoanalysis.
Space is limited and free RSVP is recommended.
Co-commissioned by The CJM, San Francisco-born artist Daria Martin’s immersive installation Tonight the World draws upon dream diaries kept by her grandmother over a 35-year period. Through atmospheric film and gaming technology, Martin stages a series of intimate encounters that envelop viewers in an exploration of the curious and traumatic history of her grandmother, who fled the imminent Nazi occupation of Czechoslovakia.
