The project investigates sleep as a state of perception where reality loses its stability and begins to exhibit internal glitches. While familiar spaces retain recognizability in sleep, a closer look reveals a breakdown in logic.
Within the scope of this project, sleep is examined not as a separate imaginary world, but as a means of transforming existing reality. The work is built upon photographs of ordinary urban and domestic spaces—spaces that remain recognizable yet undergo subtle shifts that disrupt their internal logic.
The process yielded two interconnected series, each reflecting a different level of this transformation. One series focuses on the deformation of individual objects within the space, while the other addresses changes to the space itself and its geometry. Together, they form a unified exploration of sleep as a state where the coherence of reality disintegrates across different levels of perception.
The «Object Deformation in Dreams» series focuses on the alteration of individual objects within a space. Items lose their integrity and stable form, and focus shifts from the space itself to localized anomalies that disrupt the logic of the objects and their construction.
The «Plasticity of Space in Dreams» series explores the transformation of space itself during sleep, where the familiar environment loses its stable geometry. Space is perceived as a pliable structure capable of disrupting its own logic.
