Présentation

The attempt to rationalize dreams and their spaces leads me to map them. This begins the moment they occur and continues when they are narrated or written down to solidify their memory, reassigning and triangulating. I let myself be carried away by machines that transport me and by projections of myself with dreamlike faces, comparing possible stops in a world that is just beginning to be built with its own cities, its own sounds, its own images, and its own dreams. I think that dreams serve to reorganize memories, a healthy hallucination for studying the brain. They are the particles that make up our experience, and how this activity shapes consciousness and therefore generates rhythmic bodily movements. We sleep due to information overload. The essence of dreams is incongruity and discontinuity. The brain is doing something else with information while we sleep….. Its basic geometry leads me into its psychology as an element of interconnection of space within a dream, creating a bricolage of organic sets reflected in video installations that concretize these dreams in materiality, capable of deconstructing the boundaries between real space and psychological spatiality, through synoptic charts of ancient languages and peoples, reaching the very depths of our dreams as an orientation to topophy, which aspire to take on human value.
