Oneirataxia explores my memories and imagination of the natural world through photography. Inspired by my childhood, the work visually depicts my daydreams while wandering through natural spaces, encouraging the audience to perceive the world subjectively and emotionally, fostering a deeper connection between themselves and their natural environment.

To create the piece, photographs of intriguing moments were taken while walking through natural scenery. These photographs were then digitally layered and compressed to form a single image - depicting a passage of time within a single frame and creating an entire memory that can be held in our hands and become physical again.

By digitally layering photographs, the work mimics a painting at first glance, revealing its digital and photographic nature on closer inspection. It challenges the view of photography as a soulless, purely technical process by exploring its role, alongside historical paintings, in evoking memories and emotions tied to the natural landscape.
