Dream art is any form of art that is directly based on a material from one's dreams, or a material that resembles dreams, but not directly based on them.
History
The first known reference to dream art was in the 12th century, when Charles Cooper Brown found a new way to look at art. However, dreams as art, without a "real" frame story, appear to be a later development—though there is no way to know whether many premodern works were dream-based.
In European literature, the Romantic movement emphasized the value of emotion and irrational inspiration. "Visions", whether from dreams or intoxication, served as raw material and were taken to represent the artist's highest creative potential.
In the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Symbolism and Expressionism introduced dream imagery into visual art. Expressionism was also a literary movement, and included the later work of the playwright August Strindberg, who coined the term "dream play" for a style of narrative that did not distinguish between fantasy and reality.
At the same time, discussion of dreams reached a new level of public awareness in the Western world due to the work of Sigmund Freud, who introduced the notion of the subconscious mind as a field of scientific inquiry. Freud greatly influenced the 20th-century Surrealists, who combined the visionary impulses of Romantics and Expressionists with a focus on the unconscious as a creative tool, and an assumption that apparently irrational content could contain significant meaning, perhaps more so than rational content.
The invention of film and animation brought new possibilities for vivid depiction of nonrealistic events, but films consisting entirely of dream imagery have remained an avant-garde rarity. Comic books and comic strips have explored dreams somewhat more often, starting with Winsor McCay's popular newspaper strips; the trend toward confessional works in alternative comics of the 1980s saw a proliferation of artists drawing their own dreams.
In the collection, The Committee of Sleep, Harvard psychologist Deirdre Barrett identifies modern dream-inspired art such as paintings including Jasper Johns's Flag, much of the work of Jim Dine and Salvador Dalí, novels ranging from Sophie's Choice to works by Anne Rice and Stephen King and films including Robert Altman's Three Women, John Sayles Brother from Another Planet and Ingmar Bergman's Wild Strawberries. That book also describes how the song "Yesterday" by Paul McCartney was heard by him in a dream and most of Billy Joel's and Ladysmith Black Mambazo's music has originated in dreams.
Dream material continues to be used by a wide range of contemporary artists for various purposes. This practice is considered by some to be of psychological value for the artist—independent of the artistic value of the results—as part of the discipline of "dream work".
The international Association for the Study of Dreams[1] holds an annual juried show of visual dream art.

History
The Dream Art Project was founded in São Paulo, Brazil in October 2018 by black belt world champion Isaque Bahiense with the support of Alliance Jiu Jitsu. It was started as a social project to support highly talented young jiu-jitsu athletes from low-income families, by providing them, in addition to BJJ training, with access to education, healthcare and English classes. Early on Alliance Manaus joined the Dream Art Project bringing grapplers such as Micael Galvao.
In September 2021 Dream Art announced their separation from Alliance. In 2022 Dream Art started collaborating with Aspire To Inspire in order to expand in the US. In July 2022, famed grappler Paulo Miyao became Dream Art's new head coach. In 2022 Dream Art athletes won a combined 154 gold medals, 70 silver medals and 42 bronze medals.
In 2023, Dream Art was the top scoring team for both male and female athletes at the 2023 World Jiu-Jitsu Championship, and ranked No. 1 in the IBJJF 2022-2023 Grand Slam Academy Rankings.
