moonshaped dreamscapes is a collection of paintings based on a series of intense dreams from the latter part of 2017 or, rather, their deconstruction and visual transcription.
Inspired by theories on the subconscious mind, Rorschach visuals, and continuous line drawings, these paintings come to life as manifestations and allegories of vulnerability, violence, passion, and surrender.
Using powerful emotional states as conceptual anchors the paintings come together to explore the passage of time in the form of an infinite recurring moonrise.
