Where The Shadows Play is part of my Weight of Dreams series that explores the tension between weight and wonder - a series shaped by the emotional landscapes and dreamscapes of the subconscious.

This painting drifts into the darker side of dreaming, where memory is hazy, and meaning hides beneath the surface. Where the line between memory and imagination blurs. It holds a quiet, introspective energy - of shadow, stillness, and the kind of depth we feel more than see.

Where The Shadows Play gives a voice to the unspoken - the feelings that linger at the edges of consciousness. It’s in these in-between spaces that dreams carry their greatest weight, and where imagination takes root. They are emotional undercurrents that shape us quietly, like dreams we almost remember. These dreams, even in their darkness, offer space for transformation.
