Subliminal Dreamscapes is a series of works that aim to explore the fragility of mortality, nuanced morality and the essence of life. Through dark aesthetic choices and compelling narratives, Subliminal Dreamscapes draws inspiration from our devolving landscape to shed light on the social, political and economical turmoil the world is facing today. With each composition methodically constructed from scratch, it uses self directed photography, old master works and figure studies to portray these particular themes and ideas. While Subliminal Dreamscapes may not be digestible for everyone, there is something inherently strange dark and insane about these narratives, but underneath all the grim and among the damned, you will also find beauty innocence, and hearts of gold.
