Research on dreams:
The rearch on plants reminded me of a nightmare i had which related to plants and therefore since this occurance I’ve wanted t explore this idea of the sleeping environment, dreams and plants as well to incorporating that within this project to convey the words ‘threat, bravery and safety’ metaphorically as see if it fits well on conveing that message.
First,I started with looking through my dream journal which I’ve kept since around 2015 as a very vivid dreamer myself i love looking back at all the crazy dreams and nightmares i have as sometimes they reoccure and i enjoy looking into why our brain does this kind of thing when we’re asleep.
Research on sleeping next to spmeone:
The only time that i could think of when I wouldn’t often get nightmares or dreams at all and felt safe enough to fall sleep faster even, was when i?d have another person sleeping next to me. More specifically when i knew or was close with that person. So I decided to look into why that might be the case.
