Whispers

Stéphane Mocan – Whispers

“When doomed to death, I will attend you like a nocturnal  fury. I will attack your faces and brooding up your restless  breasts, I will deprive you of repose by terror.” Horace  Whispers is the imaging of my sleep paralysis.  Nightmares I experienced in an awakened state, these  nocturnal anxieties threw me in a transitional state  between wakefulness and sleep, exposing my mind to  terrifying hallucinations. I have transcribed these dreams  through disturbing photographs, portraits with a lingering  presence and tormented landscapes. This work is part of  my imagination turned into reality.
