A home can be defined in many ways. It's a residence, a family dwelling place, and often times a refuge from the outside world. It's made of walls, and windows, and doors, which can keep people out, keep people in, or open freely so all may enter and leave as they wish.

In dreams the symbol of a house is a metaphor for the self of the dreamer.



Silke Rokitta
- In einem Haus (In a house) 2009

The sentences of "in einem Haus" I found in my twenty year old dream diaries, the pictures are from my archive. Dreams are stories, images, riddles, full of symbols, sometimes impossible to understand. Universal and personal correlations are mixed, reality is distorted.

If the language, without any filters, originate directly the dream: is the image an illustration - or an element of the dream? The word-image-combinations create relations and construct an architecture of inner space.

Fears, joys, worlds between, in layers, poetic, never rigid. An "it is". Or a "could be".
