Wishes, Lies and Dreams
Dreams are easily influenced by factors in our life and spirit, and these influences create "categories" that are almost infinite. We do broadly categorize them in terms like "sex, prophetic, standard, physical and nightmare. Dreams are a communication of body, mind and spirit in a symbolic communicative environmental state of being. Our brains are in constant activity. Different states of consciousness (like awake, asleep, alert, drowsy, excited, bored, concentrating or daydreaming) cause different brain wave activity. Our conscious mind, or the part we think with, our "window" into life, only takes up a very small portion of our brain activity.
My main concern within this project is exploring our mind, unconscious and interpretation levels of dreams as well as the possibility to understand psychic intuition. The specifics of the realization of dreams emotions, thoughts, imagination, sex drive actions and interactions of a dreamer raises the question of the viewer and that simultaneity that makes our mind and spirit work together with our brain to be understood.
The performance works project focuses on the mechanisms of perception and dreams , the private world of the world of fantasy and unconcious, the conditions underlying the system by which mind and spirit operates. At the same time, the (in)-visibility of the structure ignites a confusion on the viewers' perception of the work and of the space where it is placed, thus provoking and ambiguous relationship between the object, its function and its appearance, unlock a mysterious force field on the border of the truth and lie, that is able to create unexpected angles of approach which in turn force the viewer to take up a new position in the observation of the surrounding world.I will working on performance works project entitled "Wishes, Lies and Dreams". And I would like invited young teenager, local peoples/artists and disabled persons for sharing their Wishes/Dreams in my performance project. (Such as writing/reading something about their wishes/dreams or bring animal lives/dolls staffs and fantasy clothing)
"Wishes, Lies and Dreams" will created to explore intimacy and emotional resonance with the viewer with combines artistic and fantasy to explores experience of remembering ; questioning the fantastic adventure of nature, recognizing disquieting patterns, facing emerging memories, understanding the nature. Segments are combined with blurring images and vague to create and impression of subconscious memory and dreams.
Come with me....

Project Titled: "Wishes, Lies and Dreams"
I wishes...,
I hope. ,
I'm angry...,
I'm afraid...
I'm sad..., I'm happy....
“Wishes, Lies and Dreams” is an art experimental performance project and mixed with poem/sound and video art project depicting the world of "Unconscious"

Wishes, Lies and Dreams
Diffused light
shadows life.
Confused dreams
succumb to lies.
Dust filters light;
ashes filter life.
Dawn comes
in the night.
You turn out the light,
knowing the hand under the bed
is still there,
waiting to pull you under.
You think you're wise to play dead,
avoid stepping out of line,
close your eyes to the lies
and the dread
of seeing anyone
seeing you
seeing you.

Last night I dreamt
I was watching you sleep.
I thought my watching would wake you.
I thought that sleeping would make you feel
my presence,
my eyes on you,
your skin, open like a wound;
feeling everything without knowing
you were feeling
anything at all.

You don't move or blink, toss or turn.
I wave and smile,
wondering why
I send good wishes
and silent kisses.

I wait for you to see me,
for you to say --

"You look familiar.
I guess everyone asleep looks the same
as everyone else."

"I'm not asleep. You are.
I've been watching you sleep
for days and years."

"I know."
I take every step
As though my last,
Face the sea of my sad past,
Face the mountain, the highs and lows,
Face the stream, the ebbs and flows,
Hear the silence call my name.
Throw the dice in a life/death game.
