The David Nemcsik Levitation Project magically captures floating figures in a dreamlike state. It may be strange seeing people levitating, but the rational behind Nemcsik's project was trying to channel the [magical world of dreams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dream-recorder).

After asking his friends, who modeled for the project, where they were during their last dream, Nemcsik took the answers and made them locations for each image. The series was taken across Hungary, in an array of spots from [beautiful forests](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forest-dancer) to skateboarder-filled city squares.

According to the website My Modern Met, Nemcsik's added the [levitation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levitating-cybertruck) because it is, "magical and mysterious. They are levitating in a lying position just as if you'd be if you were lying in your bed while you were sleeping." The surreal images from the David Nemcsik Levitation Project show just how diverse and captivating the unconscious mind is.
