Falling and staying asleep has never been an easy process for me. Instead, throughout the various stages of my life, I’ve experienced heightened states of wakefulness just as my body should be slowing down. It is a quiet time for stargazing, night walks, baking, writing, and especially for creativity. The mind becomes unhinged just enough to think outside of its usual patterns. 

 

Curious to see what went on while I was asleep and unconscious, I recorded myself in bed for three months. This compilation of clips is unscripted and unedited, the movements and facial expressions subtle, but very much present.
