Dreams can be a powerful source of inspiration for creating art. The dream state is a realm of the mind where the subconscious can take over and create surreal, otherworldly imagery. I have been using dreams as my inspiration for traditional art for years. These images can be transformed into digital art that can be sold as NFTs. Here are a few tips for getting inspiration from your dreams and turning them into NFT art.
Here are some tips that I use to keep tab on my dreams
Keep a dream journal: One of the best ways to harness the power of your dreams is to keep a dream journal. Every morning, write down as much as you can remember about your dream, including any images, colors, and emotions that stood out. Over time, you’ll begin to notice patterns in your dreams and certain themes will emerge.
Interpret your dreams: To truly get inspiration from your dreams, you need to understand what they mean. There are many books and online resources available to help you interpret your dreams. Consider consulting a therapist or dream expert to help you gain deeper insights into your subconscious mind.
Use technology: With the rise of blockchain and NFTs, it’s now possible to sell digital art as a one-of-a-kind, authenticated item. Take advantage of this technology by creating digital art inspired by your dreams and selling it as an NFT.
Be open-minded: Dreams can be strange and hard to understand. Keep an open mind and don’t be afraid to experiment with different techniques and mediums. The most important thing is to let your imagination run wild and see where it takes you.
Dreams can be seen as a form of art creation in that they are a product of the mind and can be creative and imaginative. They can be thought of as a visual, emotional and symbolic representation of the thoughts, feelings, and experiences of the dreamer. Dreams can also be thought of as a form of self-expression, as they can reveal the deepest desires, fears, and hopes of the dreamer.
Many artists, writers, and poets have drawn inspiration from their dreams and used them as a source of creativity in their work. For example, Salvador Dali, a surrealist artist, often claimed that his dream images were the source of his art. Similarly, many musicians have written songs and composed music based on their dreams.
However, it’s also important to note that not all dreams are creative or meaningful, some might be just random firing of neurons in the brain and might not hold any significant meaning. It’s a personal interpretation if one considers their dream as a form of art or not.
In summary, while some may see dreams as a form of art creation, others may not. The connection between dreams and art is open to interpretation, and whether or not one considers their dreams to be a form of art is a personal decision.
In this particular picture we are showing today. The “Back to Zero” piece from the Immutable Dynasty Collection is a digital art piece that is inspired by the artist Abigail Spenser Hu dream of levitating in a floating tank. The dream is set during the time of the Covid pandemic, a chaotic and stressful time for many people. Abigail Spenser Hu describes the tank as being a zero gravity capsule, possibly made of glass, and that the feeling of floating in it was incredibly peaceful and relaxing. They felt a sense of renewal and healing that cannot be described in words.
The title “Back to Zero” references this feeling of being completely relaxed and letting go, as well as the idea that the artist is returning to a state of zero or nothingness. The image of the tank itself could be interpreted as a symbol of escape from the chaos and stress of the real world, and the feeling of levitation as a symbol of release and freedom.
The piece is created using digital medium, which allows the artist to capture the ethereal and otherworldly feeling of the dream and create a piece that truly evokes the sense of peace and renewal experienced in the dream. The use of NFT technology allows the artist to authenticate the digital piece as one-of-a-kind, making it a unique and valuable piece of art.
Overall, “Back to Zero” is a powerful and evocative piece of art that captures the feeling of a dream and turns it into a digital creation that can be shared and appreciated by others. It’s a powerful representation of the power of dreams to inspire and heal, and the ability of art to capture those feelings and make them tangible.
