Starting from the local announcement of the Brenner border restoration by the Austrian government, that risks to turn South Tyrol/Alto Adige, Italy, into another symbol of the EU disintegration, Europa Dreaming is an online project that adds its own reflections to the European debate generated by the migrant crisis. What happens to the European dream when it meets the migrants dream? Is this the Europe we dreamt of? Is the Schengen Agreement the way to the European dream? Probably not. — cairn.info

Europa Dreaming is a visual journalism project. It features Calibre Bold and Inconsolata on a greyish design that aims to evoke the consumed documents and photocopies migrants often bring themselves, with useful information, hand-drawn maps and memories. At the same time, the design reconnects with black and white newspapers that are the core of the archive research at the base of the project.
