Because my current body of work is about bedrooms and sleep, I decided that it made sense for me to start recording my dreams every morning. While most of them have been disappointingly mundane, I'm surprised by how many animals are in them (though, coming from a family of naturalists, this probably makes sense). In the past 2 weeks I have dreamed about a butterfly, a pair of eagle eggs, a hummingbird, and many, many ants.
Will I have to make some sculptures of animals to include with the bedroom objects? I'm not sure yet, could be cheesy... but it's got me thinking about art that includes animals or animal-like creatures...
This is such a fantastic collection of work. Thanks so much for sharing them. I love them all.
