Abstract

intersistere explores the connection between our shared subconscious and the collective dream world, aiming to create a visual portal into these mysterious realms. The portal represents the internal subconscious looking within oneself and the dreams that exist. itersistere takes over space as it infiltrates the wall, breaking through and crossing the line of reality and delusion. The felted intestines house the dreamscape that I once entered, looking inside my dream-self, standing between reality and dream. My work is a living research project, and I will continue looking into these ideas and dreams for as long as I am creating. Starting from recurring childhood dreams, my work is about how hypnagogia, hypnopompia and lucid dreaming are an integral part of my understanding of sleep and the way that I process them into my art. My thesis is a look into my mind as a dreamer and artist, how I think, work, and connect to the worlds around me.
