Title: Dining with her Series: Dreams Status: On-going About: This is the first entry in this series, this as part of photo-essay will have a total of 15 main pictorial works and supporting supplements. “Dreams", in this series I wanted to pictorialize what I could remember from my most vivid, intense, and memorable dreams that occurred / occurs to me during the REM phase, which is said to be the primary, deep-sleep stage. REM dreams are often characterized as intense, emotional, and story-like, compared to non-REM dreams, which are often more thought-like or brief. This stage is said to be characterized by high brain activity, rapid eye movement, and temporary muscle paralysis. It typically happens in cycles throughout the night, aiding in memory consolidation, emotional regulation, and cognitive function. I could not remember everything or every dream, but I note down and visualise what I could remember in my journal, this is also an effort to understand human persona & individual psyche, I try to detach myself from self and observe as an outsider treating myself as a mere subject. I try to be impartial and restrict projection of personal beliefs when making these observations. - - - Details: Mamiya RB67, Mamiya-Sekor Macro C 150/4.5 Fomapan 100 Fomadon LQN Year: August, 2025 - present Photo: November 2025 ***
