What began as a competition amongst friends, lovers and Romantic poets resulted in a dream that inspired one of the classic novels of English literature. While traveling through Switzerland at the tender age of 18 with her future husband Percy Shelley and Lord Byron, Mary Shelley won the friendly competition to write the best horror story. Mary dreamt about a scientific experiment gone wrong at Germany’s Frankenstein castle, which she visited just days before, and the resulting story evolved into an iconic novel of the Romantic era.

United States In My Dreams and in In My Heart is a completely upcycled piece. I used a photo frame that no longer had a glass and right on that background I started to create my work. The woman's face was made from typing paper that was cut out in the form of that woman and painted. The flowers on her head is made out of paint swatches cut in the form of a flower, as are the other parts of piece including the heart and the man's figure.
