Nightmares

I sometimes have this dream where I am awake with just my eyes open, but I can't speak or move my body whatsoever. In this piece, the typography serves as anxiety and racing fearful thoughts going through my head when I realize that my body is completely immobile despite the fact that I AM awake. Though rare, when this nightmare takes over, I find myself fighting to break free and wake up. My inside is very much alive, wanting to come out.

Houdini Bus Poster

My concept for this Houdini poster was to freeze the typography under water so that it would give the illusion of being trapped. Instead of using digital type, I used foil and paper to create the letters and I photographed the letters frozen under water and enhanced it in Photoshop.
