THE ONEIRIC

When I created my physical sculpture that this series is based on, MIST, it commented on the oneiric world and its presence in our day to day. Our daydreams are full of fantasy, endless paths, and possibilities. Providing us hope for, insight into, and escape from the surrounding ‘real’ life.

We can see how a mysterious dreamy smoke sprouts from the shoulders of the character, flowing into the reality surrounding him and mixing with its environment.

Sculpting the smoke element in clay with my own hands, it was a difficult mission to achieve the effect I intended. Thankfully, now translating this piece to digital art, the concept can be better expressed in animations.

THE ONEIRIC: Hope

Our dreams and imagination fuel us to continue through life. They help us to keep our heads high, looking to the future, fighting for our desires. They are the spark that gives us strength to go on and light the fire of hope, illuminating any darkness.
