The Border by Carolin Wanitzek, a communication design student at the University of Applied Sciences in Mannheim, Germany, is a series of whimsical photographs centered around the idea of dreams. As though capturing the 'border' between being asleep and awake, the photo series revolves around colorful set designs created out of cardboard.
From a mountain range to a shark attack, The Border by Carolin Wanitzek brings to life many dreams (and nightmares) in a crafty and colorful way. While the cardboard scenes are shot in her home studio, her models were captured in a larger professional one. The images were then masterfully stitched together in Photoshop. Caught in bed, the models look like they are genuinely interacting with their cardboard surroundings.
