Original artwork description:

When I was about 22 years old, I had this hypnagogic hallucination, where a train would pass under my duvet and I actually lifted my feet to let it pass.

Part of the collection “hypnagogia”

Hypnagogia is the transitional state of consciousness between wakefulness and sleep. During hypnagogia, it's common to experience involuntary and imagined experiences.

Actual body senses, sounds, conversations, images that appear (rush), just when I fall sleep. I had it since I was a child, I noticed it at the age of 23, and I recently found that there is a term for that experience. I perceive it as a third state of existence (after dreaming), extremely unique, and with a strong sense of delicate equilibrium.

Materials used:

ballpoint pen, colored pencil

My practice moves between memory and imagination, between the visible and the barely felt. I approach art-making as a form of intuitive excavation — an attempt to trace the inner... Read more
