Project Summary
For my March Madness project, I wanted to explore the concept of dreams and memory through my own photography, poetry as well as photos from my past. This project stemmed from a trip to the Southwest, where alongside a fresh copy of Sigmund Freud’s Interpretation of Dreams, I dove back into poetry and photography, two passions of mine that date back to when I was in fourth grade. I became fascinated with this philosophical text as someone who has very vivid memories of their childhood dreams but has faint recollection of their current dreams.
As I progressed, I began to question why my youthful dreams antagonized animals over people or how I could envision Paris and Tokyo without visiting either city at that time. The result of this questioning is this piece of work, DreamZine.
Very interesting personal exploration! Evocative and though provoking. Congratulations!
