An imaginative liquid and expansive immersion into placid and introspective enveloping landscapes veiled by lingering shadows, harmonic fragments, dilated swelling modulations and radiant swooshing streaks, where contemplative emotions stir with an all-encompassing ebb and flow of effusive frequencies, merging and blurring reality and imagination, to flourish in a mesmerizing lucid dream.
