Hi everyone :D Sometimes I dream that I'm the opposite sex which is pretty neat. So this time I was a guy, lol (and yes, I do know it's me and not someone else).
It's also in third person because I was watching the guy and events and not seeing it from my personal point of view.
*Old Dream - June 2, 2015
***
I dreamed there was a guy (me) who was chosen to be part of an art show but didn't submit anything to be a part of it for whatever reason.
Then one day as he was looking through some art displays he came across an interesting one in the subway. And it was interactive which got him really curious.
There was a giant box with what looked like a set of subway train doors. Behind the doors was a full colour digital display which changed up everyone minute or so (seen through the windows on the doors).
Participants were asked to stand by the doors and watch as the display images rolled by (kind of like watching trains passing), The scenes were always of four people sitting on a bench, but each time they were wearing different clothes, from a different era, there were even different settings in the background, etc.
After a while a host-like man holding a microphone walked up from behind the display and told the guy that he can affect the display by opening the subway train doors and so he did. There was a screen dividing the inside and outside of the "train" but he was able to move his arms through it and make the decision to walk through completely. The host talked to the guy as he was making his motions, and also told him that his choices were very important and that while in the art world he could make one desire come true.
The guy eventually stepped out of the "train" and saw the environment changed based on what image was on display :O
He then waited until there was a scene leading to a mall grocery store. The host asked why, and the guy said that if he wanted to live there (in the art display world) he'd have all the supplies he'd need. And the other scenes led to inedible food so why go there.
The host then told the guy that the art world was in trouble and was literally going to fall apart if the guy didn't help and that was why the guy was able to walk through the screen.
At first the guy was reluctant, but after seeing the sky turn almost completely black, start storming and feeling the ground tremble, he decided to help. He was tasked to find a girl who could bring peace to the world.
My dream then showed a montage of clips of the host taking risks to follow the main guy by going into another guy's "art world" experience, and interestingly there was a female voice over hosting about what was going on.
In the other guy's art world the main guy had to overcome purple/blue mountains, bubbling liquid ponds, and walking along slippery stone ledges; kind of like a contest setting. (A contest between guys who are picked to be potential saviours).
Back at the grocery store location, the guy finally made his decision and told the host he's ready to help the art world. He then made a wish to go to where to girl was. The host asked if that was what he really wanted to spend his one wish on, and the guy said yes.
They were then transported to a place that was dark and rainy and there were people who want to talk to the guy.
The people asked him why he didn't participate in the show as requested. He said he had an idea but the desire slipped away but that he felt honoured to have been asked.
The people also why he wanted to live in the grocery store and be away from the "real" world. His answer was that he didn't want to face the truth that he might have lost his drive and passion for art.
There was a bit more to the dream but I forgot what happened, but I feel things got resolved in the end.

Thank you if you got to the end! This was a long one, lol.
Revisiting this dream makes me wonder if it was around that time (2015) when I began to lose the drive to create art for myself.
I used to love drawing and colouring, and crafting like it's nobody's business, but as life went on, and priorities changed, my reason for creating art also changed from something for fun to something purely for function. And I'm definitely not okay with that anymore.
Maybe it's time I start creating for myself again, eh? :)
