Francesca Hayward, Jeremy O’Harris and Sumayya Vally feature in our latest series, An Invitation to Dream, made in collaboration with Moncler.   The three films celebrate the new exhibition presented by Moncler at Milano Centrale railway station for Salone del Mobile, curated by NOWNESS founder Jefferson Hack and captured by photographer Jack Davison. The exhibition features portraits of 12 Dreamers, some of the most influential creatives shaping contemporary culture, including Isamaya Ffrench, Rina Sawayama and Remo Ruffini among others.   The stories of these first three Dreamers are captured through the lens of director Stella Scott. The first film focuses on Kenyan-born British ballet dancer Francesca Hayward, capturing the co-existence of reality versus dreaming within the world of ballet and its fairytale image. The second follows the story of Jeremy O. Harris, writer of the acclaimed Slave Play, as he revisits the unrushed and unedited thought processes that reinforce his craft and his controversial study of race, identity and sexuality. The last film shares the dialogue of Sumayya Vally, a South African architect travelling through the streets of Whitechapel on an open top bus ride musing on the London locations that informed her 2021 Serpentine Pavilion. The three films are available on NOWNESS: https://lnkd.in/eV9T2uW9
