Exhibited in a solo presentation, Recurring Dreams is on view exclusively at Hotwater Gallery in Carlsbad, California.

This immersive collection explores the visual language of the subconscious—where memory loops, symbols recur, and perception dissolves. Quinn’s layered compositions reflect a deep investigation into liminal states: between sleep and wakefulness, between clarity and mystery.

4 ZONES OF CONSCIOUSNESS x FEAST OF ECHOES                              

All involve the boundary zones of consciousness—whether between waking and sleep, dream and reality, or identity and memory.    

•    Sleep connection: Hypnagogia, hypnopompia, and oneirodynia are directly tied to the sleep–dream cycle.    

•    Dissociation connection: Fugue shares with them the quality of breaking normal awareness, but it happens in waking life, not at sleep thresholds.    

•    In short: they’re all disruptions of the brain’s normal integration of consciousness, memory, and perception.
