Description

Nightmares and dreams possess wondrous advantages over reality: by transcending the constrains of reason, the dreamer travels beyond unforseen places in which she confuses Now with a multitude of yesterdays. As she closes her eyes, escaping through fantastic words that are larger inside than they are outside, hazy images of familiar and foreign faces dazzle her sense by transforming themselves into the characters of a play that nobody ever wrote and for which she is both, audience and protagonist, all at once. She may be hurt, loved or disdained. She can see and hear, although her eyes are shut and her ears slumber. Perhaps, as she awakes, she will wonder about the many lifes she just lived or she may decide to forget them as they secretly continue to shape her days to come.
