About
Interpreting the meaning of "The Dreamers Box" ultimately lies within the audience's perspective themself. Nevertheless, as I crafted this piece, I delved into overarching themes that captivated my interest, primarily exploring how trauma can both obscure and bring forth memories, and also how it can construct a world of illusion. In my pursuit of an appropriate aesthetic, I harnessed my own personal nostalgia and memories as the raw materials to shape and create "The Dreamers Box."
Who is the intuder and who is the dreamer?
