REM ∞ / 2021



REM ∞ is a kinetic sculpture, featuring ambiguous layers of scraped colors on a pole wrapped with classic 1980s home wallpaper. It evokes the impression of dream clusters that occur during R.E.M. sleep—the rapid eye movement phase characterized by vivid dreams. These dreams arise from diverse neural pathways projecting images into the brain, crossing the threshold of half-consciousness and imprinting memories. Then, another dream cycle begins.
