The Night Dream is a painting that exists between reality and dream, tradition and modernity, silence and emotion.
Two women appear back to back, like two sides of the same soul. One looks at us with calm intensity, the other turns inward, lost in her thoughts. Together they create a dialogue — between past and present, strength and softness, identity and transformation. The painting feels cinematic, almost like a scene from a story we don’t fully know yet, but somehow understand emotionally.
The contrast between the highly realistic oil-painted faces and the abstract acrylic and gold leaf background creates a powerful visual tension. The gold leaf catches the light and changes throughout the day, making the painting feel alive depending on where you stand and how the light enters the room.
This artwork works beautifully in a living room, above a sofa, in a bedroom, a dressing room, an office, or a hallway, where it immediately becomes a focal point. The colors — deep blues, reds, golds, and soft skin tones — create a strong but elegant presence without overwhelming the space.
This is not only a portrait painting — it is a painting about identity, memory, femininity, and inner worlds.
Collectors are often drawn to this work because it feels both powerful and intimate at the same time.
“The Night Dream” is a painting you don’t just decorate a wall with — it creates an atmosphere, a mood, and a story in a space.
Provenance
Very influenced by the aesthetic details of Japanese painting, Damien Bassez uses oil, acrylic and gold leaf to create these beautiful asian women.Exhibitions
