When I Sleep is the visual exploration of the dreamscape, the realm where we travel when we sleep. Dreams and the brain are unpredictable; our subconscious makes connections beyond our control. Throughout the history of humanity, scientists, psychologists, and philosophers have sought to unravel the profound mysteries of our dreams. Although we may not possess a definitive explanation for these nocturnal reveries, there is consensus that they serve as a unique extension of the dreamer's individuality.
I attempt to unfold the subconscious mind by mortalising my dreams into physical work. Calling upon the history of bedtime stories, I’ve formed a book which diaries my dreams through this project. I use contrasting mediums to symbolise the variation and cryptic nature of the subconscious. When I Sleep asks you to consider what you dream about and why.
Dreams form one's essence,
Pure and untamed,
A soul's reflection,
A window to the being.
