"Dreaming is a meditative film by Roger Thorp which alludes to the cataclysmic human appetites which have propelled us towards the apocalyptic countdown of the climate crisis. The film positions contemporary finite concerns and appetites over-layed, in contrast, with a wider contemplation of deeper indigenous knowing and spiritualinterconnectivity, set against the vast expanse of the infinite universe. The film is a palimpsest of deep concern layered with hope and potential." Joseph Clarke, Anima Mundi Gallery

“I had the pleasure to watch Roger Thorp’s latest video piece at “protected by alarms” and I was really moved by it. The video brought a voice to the naked emotions that modern media tends to disguise or hide from us in a engaging, yet subtle way. It is beautifully made and sincere. Nothing to sale or to tell. A breathing poem about us, life and the planet earth. Thank you.” Alban Roinard
