This is a short, musical film for M. West’s track “Swimming Upstream” from his new CD “Still Life’s Allusions” (available on all platforms)
It was created and edited on an Iphone 7 plus.
M. West (Singer/Songwriter) portrays The Dreamer in this metaphorical dreamscape.
Sometimes life may be experienced as a test in determination and tenacity and is played out in our dreams.
Reaching for another shape like words making their way through dreams, perhaps, life in its complexity—makes a surreal experience after all.
