This month I posted every day on the theme of dreamscape. I didn’t know what I meant at the start, except that I’d be lurking at the shadowy — or perhaps blindingly bright — intersection of landscape, seascape, the dreams and nightmares of sleep, daydreams and imaginings, the fantastical and surreal, what’s revealed at the flickering edge of consciousness, the ever-receding nature of mirage.
I wrote a poem, posted photos, quotes, links, etc., each day relating to or inspired by the dreamscape theme. Each post is linked below as it was published. Thanks for following along.
