Constructed Realities: The Dream

















Constructed Realities: Fictions
With this title i decided to base my studio project around a recurring dream i have had over the last year or so. I took the story out of its fictitious state and represented it in the reality of the studio. The sequence is constructed physically rather than mentally, unfortunately i couldn't get a smoke machine to show the fog surrounding the subjects.

This dream is set in a forrest or garden, with a very hazy atmosphere. Glimpsing through the mist there is a young girl who stands in the centre of this botanical scene holding a shining orb. The complexity of time is very apparent in these dreams, flicking back and forth, as if in confusion of reality. The numbers 0, 2, 9, 5, 6, 9 and 8 fly around the forrest, in some sort of dance. As she plays with this sphere, twirling it around her head and up in the air, a nymph enters the scene and takes it from the girl. Now the nymph is the centre of this escapade, and the girl is know-where to be seen. On occasions the girl has try to speak just before the nymph appears, however i cannot make out what is trying to be said... The rest of this dream is in silence.
