Banal quirkiness

Sleep is a symbolic understanding, a reflection of the world. This is the strange state that the ancients feared, perceiving it as death, and which scientists are still investigating. In a dream person seems to turn off like a burning light bulb to awaken in another dimension. But where exactly? In paradise, hell or fairy tale? Or maybe in a parallel reality?

 

Exploring the topic of ontology through dreams as a line between real and unreal, visible and invisible, I listen to the feeling of myself in my own dreams, to feel the presence of myself not here or now.

 

I see sleep as an altered state of consciousness

 

In particular, in my work I address the phenomenon of disjunctive cognition common in dreams. The essence of this phenomenon is that in a dream, the two aspects of cognition may not coincide, for example, when we understand that we see a specific acquaintance or relative in a dream, but do not recognize his appearance. Or when we are adults in our childhood.
