While I Sleep works to challenge distinctions between reality and surreality, life and dream, existence and nothingness. This project is inspired by the paralysis, nightmares, and surreal dreams I experience every night. This project is very close to me, as I truly believe one of the most effective ways to understand your unconscious psyche and repressed mind is through dream documentation analysis.  By creating visual representations of dreams, I am able to better process them and come to understand the meanings of them.
