Garden of Dreams

In the hush between wake and sleep, where memory and reverie intertwine, the Garden of Dreams emerges. Within these canvases, Amalia Kouvalis cultivates portals—thresholds to places that exist beyond the grasp of time, nestled in the subconscious. Each painting unfurls as a dream given form: a silent garden borne of longing, where shadows drift in light that feels half-remembered. Here, time dilates and fractures—the past converges with the future, and every blossom trembles with echoes of untold stories. The garden is not fixed; it is an invitation to drift, to wander, to become lost in possibilities.

In this series, portals are everywhere—an arch of vines, a shifting reflection, a path bending beyond perception. They beckon us to question what lies beyond the verge of consciousness, to sense that a moment from yesterday or tomorrow waits on the other side, coaxing us into its fold. Ultimately, Garden of Dreams is an exploration of the hidden chapters of the psyche, the liminal spaces between presence and memory, and the secret landscapes our hearts trace when the world lies silent.
