I&#8217;ve always been attracted to this imagery because it&#8217;s both visually disconcerting and emotionally resonant. The person is grounded in reality but also allowing for an interior life, a dream. This is the dream eye.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some of the images were the result of two photographs photoshopped together but many others were actually just one image where I asked the person to simply close one eye. It is easy to do but not easy to do in such a way as both eyes looked relaxed. When I found a person who could do that it was a real treat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is a selection from that series.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr
