A dream never offers only one interpretation. Do dreams have a meaning anyway? Do they have to be interpreted? In dreams, there are always different interlaced layers and they don't necessarily follow the rules of the reality we experience, when we are awake. I attempt to translate irrational thoughts, actions and feelings of dream-phases in my sleep to photographic pictures, without interpreting the dream, without predefining a certain meaning. I tried to create and capture pictures, that can surprise and inspire myself in the long term, by staying as intuitional and "unconscious" as possible, when thinking of subjects, objects and ways to arrange a picture. Do my pictures have a meaning? The seeker and the dreamer decide.
