Judas (from fr. "peephole") - is a series dedicated to fear and remorse through the scenery of a nightmare where peephole becomes pupil of a sleeper or maybe someone else.

I dreamt of a raven. Black as the infinite void in a mortal’s mind. It stared into me, through the veil of sleep. Into me, lying in the bed of my Parisian apartment. And nothing could have felt more real. It made no sound. It watched as my body was drawn into the vortex of its eyes. Their spectral emptiness suddenly turned to glass, whose sharp glint jolted me awake. A sharp gasp. Silence. I didn’t know where or who I was. In my field of vision: a white ceiling and a chandelier — objects whose sterile impersonality only deepened my fear. It took time to gather myself. I rose from the bed and approached the window. Pulling back the curtain, I saw a black raven perched on the sill.
