A Dream of Water, is a digital collage series that intricately combines video stills with photographs of personal, bodily, natural and synthetic materials to create immersive visual environments. The water is both a literal element and a symbolic conduit to deeper states of consciousness, reshaping the act of seeing, while the body becomes a means for perceiving the world in non-linear intuitive ways. This series is a sensory dive, where meaning flickers just out of reach and unfolds through layers of tension, emotion, memory and fragmented narratives. It moves from the depths to the surface, blending bodies and ocean remnants into something organic, emotional, and otherworldly. Like a crack in perception, it invites the free flow of spontaneous imagination, a desire to tap into the depths of the mind and revive the senses in a state of floatation or submersion.The dichotomy between what we see and what we perceive becomes palpable aiming to encourage seeing through the whole body rather than solely the eyes.
