DESCRIPTION OF THE WORK
One third of our life is spent while we are sleeping and when we are awake, we are still dreaming: of exotic things, impossible things, of being somebody else, of keeping a dream alive - we are in a constant need of a parallel reality, a dream reality.
In my video I was imagining what a stone statue dreams - we don't know if they are capable of dreaming or not. It is dreaming of being alive, mobile, un-stoned, of feeling inside the beauty it shows outside and of dying, of waking up from the dream. Everytime we wake up from a dream we die a little, a story from us dies.
