I Dream Where My Eyes Wandered is a reflection on acts of dreaming, the passage of time, and reconciling a distorted sense of place. The spiraled design of the ceiling imprint on the pillow, cast in plaster, points to the inner state of the refugee body, constantly negotiating an intertwined sense of time and place. Resting the head on the ceiling is an ironic characterization, illustrating the relationship between a body’s disjointed sense of reality and the dream-like understanding of a place that is constantly folding and collapsing on itself.
