Oníricos

Oníricos is a term derived from the Greek word "oneiros," meaning dream. It is often used to describe phenomena, art, or experiences that are dreamlike or have qualities associated with dreams. This can encompass a wide range of subjective experiences, from vivid dream imagery to altered states of consciousness that resemble dreaming.

In art and literature, "oníricos" refers to a style or theme characterized by surrealism, the subconscious, and illogical juxtapositions. Artists and writers who explore oníricos themes often aim to evoke the feeling of a dream, blurring the lines between reality and fantasy. This can manifest through symbolic imagery, disjointed narratives, and an exploration of internal psychological landscapes. The intent is frequently to tap into deeper emotional or psychological truths that are not always accessible through rational thought.

The concept of oníricos can also extend to personal experiences that feel dreamlike, such as moments of intense introspection, déjà vu, or profound emotional states. These experiences, while not literal dreams, share the characteristic of feeling ethereal, subjective, and perhaps detached from ordinary reality. The term suggests a realm of experience that is subjective, often elusive, and deeply connected to the inner world of an individual or the imaginative realm of artistic creation.
