Artistic representations of dreams (paintings, video etc)

Not yet. Somewhat pressed for time. Currently aiming for consistency not duration.

This video is like a horrific (and also kinda cool) sleep paralysis nightmare. Really captures the sense of dread and anxiety

Kelly Bulkeley has some dream-related videos posted here.

“In sleep, we dream deep. Even the strongest need an escape. To dream is not weak. Night out, day in.”

“From sleep so deep, we wake. Eyes open. Living, breathing dreams.”

RISING (Vimeo, 5 min) is a tribute to the relentless resilience of the human spirit. During this global pandemic we have collaborated with an international array of 14 cinematographers to create this inspiring message of hope. In a time when the issues of the world would have us divided, this film demonstrates what can be achieved when we work together. RISING shows the beauty of the world that surrounds us and the power of unity and human connection.”

Lots of dreamy images at Extraordinary Fantasy Art by Jeremiah Morelli

Here’s another dream-recreation by my friend Elizabeth: Dream Drawing - Screaming Lady and Frankenstein Ice Cream Sandwiches (a 1-minute YouTube video tour of a virtual reality recreation of the dream scene. The YouTube description describes the dream in more detail.

Elizabeth comments: “I really enjoy dream work in VR, it is informative (although sometimes unsettling) to recreate and inhabit the dreamspace in waking life.” I think dream re-creation is one of the more exciting uses of virtual reality.

Impressive in many ways including the overall image and the command of Tilt Brush, which still eludes me.

2-minute video depicting dream flying (It’s technically a commercial, but you only see the branding for a couple of seconds at the very end)

Speaking of dream commercials: Spike Jonze Adidas Commercial - Hello Tomorrow (feat. Karen O) (1.5 minutes) is also very cool

Hey that’s a really cool topic @ArthurG !

Has anyone heard of Vladimir Kush ?! Don’t think I’m seen it here…

I love his work. I found out about him when I was 15. We had to prepare a small “Poetry Booklet” for our french class on the theme of our choice, and of course, I chose Dreams ! We had to illustrate our work with paintings that were related to the poems. This is what I found…

No, I just like to prolong my trigger finger and sometimes my finger tip is hanging on a long cord afterwards :sweat_smile: As my cat was in the painted dream, I used it as a toy for her.
