Nightmares

"One of the first dreams I remember was in an almost post-apocalyptic desert landscape when a strange human figure appeared and watched me from a house. It was a recurring dream for some time. I remembered his strangeness and his look as something threatening. How something that seemed so out of reality could generate such powerful and real emotions… The dream had turned into a nightmare. Time ago, while intervening some film negatives without any specific objective, I found this image that connected directly with this forgotten memory. While the image was changing, I felt that the memories were changing too. Somehow, I think I set fire to the house in this dream, and I could feel that something had changed, for both of us."
