Fugitive Testimony

For my current project, Fugitive Testimony, I have decided to carry on with my concept that came from the Dream Task. I found this research incredibly interesting and found it very fitting to what my ideas of fugitive testimony are. 
      To begin this project, I initially started to research the meaning ‘Fugitive Testimony’, and what the words meant separately. Fugitive means ‘Fleeting, Brief’ whereas Testimony is ‘Truth, Evidential’. These two juxtaposing phrases reminded me of a project I was currently working on in my visual studies sessions. This was called the Dream task, where we randomly picked out a dream from a hat and had to produce a piece of work in response to the dream. During this task I came across some interesting research about dreams, and the barrier between reality and dreaming, and the vagueness of truth and fiction. This is what I wanted to express for my concept of Fugitive Testimony.
