In January 2008, the National Maritime Museum (NMM) opens the first solo UK exhibition of American artist Renee Green: Endless Dreams and Water Between is an exhibition of newly commissioned work which examines the power of islands as places where people, cultures and histories converge and intermingle.
The exhibition combines film, sound, banners and print to explore how maritime cultures are entwined with desires and dreams.
These elements include traces of several fictional characters’ reflections and engagement with islands; places which are often filled with dreams. Green’s work introduces alternative ways of interpreting ideas of truth and history.
