Lucid Dreams

Lucid Dreams
Courtney Beglin

“From a wild weird clime that lieth, sublime,
Out of SPACE—Out of TIME.”
-Edgar Allan Poe, Dreamland (1845)

I am an active lucid dreamer and nearly every morning I awake with a buzzing head, overflowing with fantastical adventures, screaming colors, and impossible landscapes conjured within the recesses of my imagination. It is from this enchanting twilight realm that much of my inspiration and creativity derives, and many of my waking days are spent seeking to communicate the wonders I've witnessed in the endless film reel of my dreams.

I am interested in observing the many facets of being - in capturing and highlighting perceptions of existence, both tangible and abstract. Through this collection I explore the formless, visceral experience of dreaming, in the hopes of unleashing the tethers of practicality and in demolishing the confines through which we structure our consciousness.
