Inspired by lucid dreams, Disruptive Incoherence explores the use of the imagination as a coping mechanism for unpleasant truths. We rely on the disruptive incoherence of dreams to avoid pain and the past that causes it, even at the cost of being distracted from daily obligations. Artworks by Juert Asejo, Jason Rufino and Jian Giannini distort the human figure into fantastical colors and shapes; in refusing to accept life as it is, they transcend visible realities and depict them in their own terms.
