Thank you! It seems like they can form a narrative, but they are also stand alone image. Thanks for your in-depth review and thoughts.

This series is very sensual. My favorite among them is Sleep, because of the languid position of the figure.  While the others are engaged in fluttery movement, suggesting transformative motion, Dream manages this vibrating, trembling energy in a supine pose. The amorphous pinkish orange hue is fleshy and alive, but also delicately feminine; it’s vague connotation an open shell or flower.  I also like that this image maintains a relatively large field of blackness- the void creating an ethereal depth of space. I do wonder if the series provides a conceptual narrative or if the individual works are formally related, but are intended to stand alone.
