“Traum” by Alexander Binder (part 1)

Traum (part 1)
Dreams are the pathway to our subconsciousness. Sigmund Freud
conceived them as an expression of the dreamer’s deepest fears and
desires. And some scientists have even analyzed the similarities
between the phenomenology of dreams and that of psychosis.
It is this mysterious combination of neural processes, hidden fears
and spiritual messages which makes dreams such a fascinating subject.
“Traum” tries to visualize this fine line between imagination and
reality – between otherworldly beauty and subliminal fear.
The mystic, surreal landscapes of Iceland, large waterfalls, sulfuric
smoke and the lava fields of Dimmuborgir built the background for
“Traum”. The sequence of photographs moves from almost frightening,
dark images to colorful works that literally pulsate with light.
“Traum” was shot over a period of several weeks in summer 2009.
