I chose to recreate a dream that I have on occasion. I composed it with a small aperture and flourescent lighting coming from the right side. In order to show movement, I change the arrangement of the pieces for each shot. I focused on the king of the chess board each time with the other pieces in the background blurred out.This recreation depicts a strange dream I have in which these large chess pieces seem to be attacking me. Nothing ever really happens to me, but I seem to understand that I am in danger and am scared. The pieces get larger and small right before my eyes and then I usually wake up. I didn't want to capture the fear in these recreation, but rather the oddity of the dream.
