Dreams – Woven and Words

This springs from work presented by Tyrone artist, Clare McCarroll as part of the Carleton Summer
School. Tyrone poet Drax, aka Des Donnelly, attended and wrote a poem based on the piece “A Flying Dream”. From this interpretation emerged a collaboration which won an Award from the Arts Council in the
North for the creation of 5 poems (forming the basis for 5 textile wall hangings) and 5 textile wall
hangings (forming the basis for 5 additional poems). The primary theme revolved around Dreams.

The textile pieces produced by Clare McCarroll from which poems were then written.
