Artwork description
Once I suffered with insomnia for months. Eventually my mind actually tipped over, and I stepped into an alternate reality, i.e. a psychosis. Years later I find myself having unresolved issues with that experience, and a profound fascination over the concept of sleep itself. Each night we enter a lucid coma for hours, slipping through the veil of reality and undergoing bizarrely interwoven hallucinations, then usually awakening to a partly amnesia on the entire experience. I formed a fragmented language through that exposure, and I need to translate that visually. Initially these images were shot in an abandoned farmhouse in the forest, the interior covered with crystallized and sparkling frost, the structure willing to collapse at any given moment, everything covered with dirt and decay, the atmosphere was exceptionally eerie, perfectly representative of the stagnation of time one undergoes during a harrowing period of forced wakefulness.
