3 Months of Data Collection
Encapsulating three months of my dreams. Each recorded dream is paired with a digital collage of its subject matter and a holistic overview of my nightly sleep.

Materials
Dreams feel like a distorted mirror of reality. To help communicate this idea, I used materials such as reflective mylar, vellum, and transparencies to help communicate this ethereal quality.
Pacing
Dream reports become more distorted in each section publication progresses - a nod to how memory is fickle, especially with dreaming.
