Dreams and Nightmares

CURATED BY JUSTIN SAINSBURY

 

"The dream has a very striking way of dealing with the category of opposites and contradictions. This is simply disregarded. To the dream 'No' does not seem to exist''
- Sigmund Freud, The Interpretation of Dreams

With sleep comes jagged mind games - flitting between unrealised aspirations and the realisation of our anxieties. Symbols, mixed-up metaphors and chance juxtapositions are found then lost. Perhaps we seek these again through pictures that we can hold on to, when we have the time to make sense of it all.
