      Hi, this is a fantastic question. It also boils more down to my opinion on dreams at this point. I think dreams are inherently creative and, as such, I would be very surprised if there was no link between dreams and imagination. This is a hypothesis but I am not sure if it has been answered yet by science. I do know that many artists and cultures are fascinated by dreams (as am I) and they inspire some amazing artwork. Check out this wiki article on surrealism for a whole art movement inspired by dreams: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surrealism
