Clare Johnson is a doctoral researcher with
the University of Leeds, England, investigating the role of lucid dreaming
in the creative process. Her research is rooted in practice as she is
writing a novel which features lucid dreaming and lucid dream inspired
art. She is exploring ways of drawing on lucid dreams at each stage of the
creative process. Artist Statement: When I started having lucid dreams over a decade ago, I was eager to find a means of representing them visually. I used a marbling technique and images cut from magazines and old photographs. I then arranged them into collages. Bright colours are used to represent the extreme visual clarity of my lucid dreams. Hands and eyes appear frequently in my collages. The hands reflect a lucidity technique used to stabilise the dream scene, while the eyes represent the conscious gaze of the lucid dreamer. | |||
