We are all escapists to a certain degree; if we weren’t, we wouldn’t dream. We dream of everything from mundane high school tests to fantastical realities that couldn’t possibly exist. The long-unanswered question is still whether or not dreams are the true reality. Problems arise when we have trouble distinguishing the dream from reality.
Within this series, I am able to photograph what I want to see rather than relying on what I am forced to see in this world. Fantastical elements that have no basis in reality are accompanied by contrasting images of ordinary people who seem perfectly content with the world in which they are placed.
