Kudos acknowledges and pays respect to the Gadigal and Bidjigal people of the Eora nation. They are the traditional custodians of the land Kudos operates on. We create, design, share, and exchange our work and knowledge on this important meeting place. We pay our respects to elders past and present and extend that respect to any First Nations people who engage with Kudos. This is and always will be Aboriginal land.

From the moment you wake up from a dream, the afterimage of the dream is naturally forgotten in your brain.
Unbelievable situations that cannot happen in real life are sometimes entangled in nonsensical stories. For some, dreams are often terrifyingly strange nightmares. That is why dreams are mysterious, bizarre, and frightening. Dreams serve as a medium for expressing untamed thoughts, and the possibilities are endless.
This exhibition presented endless possibilities for artists to explore a deeper and wider world of the unconscious by crossing realistic and illusory spaces through their works.
