Mysterious and fascinating is the world of dreams, where the rules of reality do not apply.
Dreams are unique. No one else can have or understand your context, emotions or experiences. Therefore each dream is connected with your own "reality", and the goal is to understand it and respect it.
A dream creates a bond between body, mind and soul. They give you the deepest clues about yourself, and what they mean are the key to getting to know ourselves. If you understand dreams, the bigger the knowledge about oneself will be…
And sometimes, some of this dreams, need to be free

Sigmund Freud:
“…The emotions buried in the surface of subconsciousness rise to the conscious surface when dreaming, and to recall fragments of these dreams may help uncover those buried emotions and memories…”

With the “Dreams” series I try to express the feelings and emotions we carry on us, some hidden and uniquely ours, personal and secret, others that are obsessions, that someday, maybe, we will reach… others, mysteries we hope one day will come true, even when we know they are unreachable, but we keep them in our insides, without revealing it; “they are just ours”.
