Summary/Abstract: The present paper aims to document the elements that occur unconsciously in the universe of the creator through the long study of the dream phenomenon and the transposition of the results obtained through the prism of sketches and works that compose an overview of the whole process. The elements of interest concern the meeting of the exact sciences with notions belonging to the archaic world, of superstitions and popular beliefs. Sleep, the boundary between life and death - between ephemeral and real - man’s initiatory journey into his own universe of mind. The subconscious is the main element of existence, being made up of thoughts, ideas and feelings. The result of the subconscious is often projected through the dream, being in fact made up of a multitude of elements (symbols) to which we attribute meaning. The purpose of the proposed work is to illustrate the subconscious contents of the author, and introspection of thought and feelings by composing dreams over time.
