Four final photography pieces

The final four photographs represent my subject matter the strongest. The photograph on top left represents the high occurring theme of water in sleep/night terrors. The reflection on the sand creating a silhouette/shadow of the figure is another aspect in night terrors.My photography has hidden symbols to represent night terrors and common themes in sleep also. The top right photograph represents the scary unwanted "person" people roughly make out during an episode of their night terrors. The bottom left photograph is representing the common feeling of drowning and floating in night terrors and lastly the bottom left photograph represents the grasping presence of something unatural that individuals suffering with this sleep disorder think are pulling and grabbing them.

Final video installation

Final Outcomes: Video

Throughout the video installation I wanted to show both the physical and mental aspects of what an episode of night terrors consists of and what an individual goes through from moving around, kicking to sweating. I wanted the individual to be dressed in nightwear and blindfolded to represent those clips are what she is dreaming of. Hope you enjoy.

Final sculpture piece

Final Outcomes: Portfolio

The sculptures facial expression is based off of my own primary photography. The grasping hands are to represent the fear of an unwanted presence that is commonly felt in a night terror episode but they also open up the sleeping individuals mind that is experiencing a night terror. The video installation will then be played onto the sculptures head to show that this is what the individual is experiencing both mentally and physically.
