Do you toss and turn all night or lay peacefully, barely making a move? Sleep For Days, a photo series shot by Claire Sloan, examines the movements that occur in a person's sleep over the course of six hours through one single, super long exposure shot.
I'm assuming these are self portraits, which means that Claire Sloan is one deep sleeper. She barely moves at all, it's hard to believe these were taken over the course of several hours.
Claire Sloan's Sleep For Days project would be a neat assignment to do on a larger with scale, with more people - especially people who are known restless sleepers, or better yet, sleepwalkers!
