Somewhere In Between

blaine Rubenson

My work explores a world of dream imagery formed from my own unconscious visions and the dreams of others. I emphasize the seamless movement I experience from waking world to sleeping world and back again in endless cycles. Each piece is a vignette, a glimpse into a different reality where things are scarier, more peaceful, more mysterious. These worlds are perhaps as real, if not more so than the waking world we live in by day. I seek to create portals into these worlds and to encourage viewers in nurturing their own fantastic realities.
