Garden of Dreams reflects a state of calm and abstract ideals of dreaming and subconsciousness. The contrast between green and white outlines the subject and symbolises how a state of calm is devoid of busy thoughts – as seen by the flowers which represent the lack of thought and energy in the mind. The overgrown garden is influenced by Surrealism with giant sunflowers forming an area where one’s sleeping self is indulged by their subconscious.
