Dreamscape

This week as well as focusing on the essay, which is now about feminism essentially, I’ve been thinking about dreams and how we process stress in our dream state. Frequently I dream about making work and with frequent deadlines both for university and work, I think its fair to say its been all consuming. It’s also probably had a lot to do with reading about psychoanalysis.

With that in mind, I decided to make work about dreams, the place where both good and bad esteems are in conflict. Self-doubt is represented by youth, whereas, self-certainty is represented by being comfortable in one’s own skin. I have also taken inspiration from children’s stories such as; The Wizard of Oz and Snow white to add a fantastical element, and with Halloween on the calendar – its probably fair to say that has been an inspiration too.
