R.E.M State, This piece captures the surreal fragmentation of the REM sleep cycle—where time bends, logic fades, and the subconscious takes center stage. Dark, dreamlike forms swirl in a weightless void, hinting at half-remembered places and figures that shift just beyond recognition. Burned into wood, the imagery reflects both the intimacy and instability of dreams, inviting the viewer to linger in the liminal space between sleep and waking.
