What is dream core?

Dream Core is an indescribable new Internet art derived from the liminal space.

Liminal space was originally used to describe a transition area that serves as a transit function, such as a corridor, a staircase or a waiting room. Those furniture and decorations whose age cannot be distinguished look depressed and strange under the bright white fluorescent lights. It not only gives people a sense of familiarity of "I may have been here", but also makes you feel that something is wrong, which can inspire There is a sense of nostalgia, loneliness and uncertainty, as well as the eerie feeling of being in a dream.

A very important point in the dream core is "selflessness". The subject "I" rarely appears in the works. There is a good example, "It's like we look in the mirror but can't see ourselves." ” Or thinking of ourselves as other people, this sense of alienation makes us feel confused and familiar, as if we are not in control of ourselves when we dream.

Dream core mainly embodies the feeling of dreaming. It usually uses some familiar pictures to modify and add fantasy elements that do not exist in reality.

The temperament of Dream Core is warm and familiar, but also strange. It is often unclear to explain, as if it had been there in a dream. But some stories or plots can be seen, ultra-high saturation + contrast, unrealistic and realistic scenes, and sometimes it feels like once people are trapped in such a house, they will never be able to get out. The flat, vast and colorful spaces are sometimes tinged with a sense of fear and domination from childhood memories and dream recollections.
