Parasomnias are a category of sleep disorders that involve abnormal movements, behaviours, emotions, perceptions, and dreams that occur while falling asleep, sleeping, between sleep stages, or during arousal from sleep. Parasomnias are dissociated sleep states which are partial arousals during the transitions between wakefulness, NREM sleep, and REM sleep, and their combinations. I was invited to participate as an illustrator on the project by GIF artist Petra Švajger, In the GIF's & cinemagraph's series we included five different types of parasomnias; sleep paralysis, sleep eating, REM sleep, restless leg syndrome and insomnia.
