I began my studio practice four by looking at dreams, thinking my starting point could be a dream I had featuring a house. I decided to send my dream off to two psychic dream analysts so that I could use their interpretation to help guide me in making work. The analyses talked about a lot of things, but I decided to focus on two main principles: past life meditation (a meditation to help you connect with past lives you have lived) and the idea of soul time (a timeless, infinite, and non-linear space). I went to a second psychic who suggested I do 'spirit drawing' which is automatic drawing where you allow the spirits to create through you, to help engage with my creative practice. I did the past life meditation and then interpreted the drawings as representations of my soul time.
research on this period of my work is extremely limited, as this was simply an exercise to get me to start working. This was the very humble beginning of my project work.
When I started making this work, I had no idea what I was going to work on through the year, and needed an initial push into making with the hope that it would spark some kind of idea inside me.
