Lucidity in Dreams
In this collection, I explore the state of lucid dreaming — the moment when you are no longer just observing, but begin to realize that everything around you is created by your own mind.
The faceless figure, for me, is not a specific character but rather a point of entry. It has no face because it can be anyone. In some sense, it is me; in another, it is anyone who finds themselves inside their own dream and suddenly becomes aware of it.
The imagery surrounding the figure doesn’t emerge as a constructed narrative, but as something deeper and more elusive. I was strongly inspired by the ideas of Carl Jung and his concept of the collective unconscious — the idea that within us exists a shared layer where archetypes and symbols reside, not consciously invented but revealed. I’m drawn to the thought that in dreams, we come into contact with this very space.
That’s why, in my works, the visions may feel strange, illogical, sometimes even indifferent to the figure itself. But to me, that is their true nature — they don’t need to explain themselves. They simply emerge.
The most important state I try to convey is the balance between control and letting go — when you realize you are dreaming, yet you don’t break the dream, but continue moving within it, gently influencing what unfolds.
