Paralysert

The inspiration for my collection “Paralyzed” is drawn from the experience of sleep paralysis. During REM sleep, the body is immobilized to prevent the physical enactment of dreams. Sleep paralysis occurs when the mind awakens while the body remains in this paralyzed state. In this condition, one is fully conscious but unable to move, speak, or open their eyes, often experiencing a distorted sense of time. Hallucinations are common and may involve visual, auditory, and tactile sensations (Somnus, 2022). Personally, I experience a sensation of breathlessness, a feeling of fainting, and frequent out-of-body experiences or hallucinations of other presences in the room.
