They are the basis for \u003cem\u003e\u0026#39;Dream Drawings\u0026#39;\u003c/em\u003e, in which he captures subconscious narratives in comic style. And later for \u003cem\u003e\u0026#39;Dream Objects\u0026#39;\u003c/em\u003e, a very varied series of sculptures that are often a nod to the style of other artists. The drawings can be seen as a way of organising material from Shaw\u0026#39;s dreams \u0026ndash; the \u003cem\u003e\u0026#39;Dream Objects\u0026#39;\u003c/em\u003e as ultimate manifestation of his creative unconscious. The long titles that serve as a description of the dream in question are typical too. This work refers to Shaw\u0026#39;s fascination with religion. Over the years, he has been collecting religious and educational material, including kitschy oil paintings, banners, flyers, and manuals produced by a proliferation of American cults. In this way, Shaw focuses on the importance of image creation and communication for these religious movements.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"nl","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify\"\u003eVanaf de jaren 1990 vormen Shaws eigen dromen een belangrijke inspiratiebron.

Typerend zijn ook de lange titels die gelden als een beschrijving van de droom in kwestie. Dit werk verwijst naar de fascinatie van Shaw voor religie. Doorheen de jaren verzamelde hij religieuze en pedagogische materialen, waaronder kitscherige olieverfschilderijen, banners, flyers, handleidingen geproduceerd door een wildgroei aan Amerikaanse sektes. Hiermee legt Shaw de focus op het belang van beeldvorming en communicatie voor deze religieuze bewegingen.\u003c/p\u003e\r\n"},{"locale":"fr","short_description":"","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align:justify\"\u003e\u0026Agrave; partir des ann\u0026eacute;es\u0026nbsp;1990, ses propres r\u0026ecirc;ves constituent une source d\u0026rsquo;inspiration importante pour Jim Shaw. Ils sont \u0026agrave; l\u0026rsquo;origine de sa s\u0026eacute;rie Dream drawings [dessins de r\u0026ecirc;ve], dans laquelle il transpose des r\u0026eacute;cits subconscients dans un style de bande dessin\u0026eacute;e.
