Story & Message:

North is where all the evil, scary and unpleasant things come from. So all the heroes go North, even though everyone on their way advises otherwise.

From my project “Maze”:

A labyrinth or a maze is one of the oldest symbols of humanity, dating back to 2500BC. It’s also a motif found across many cultures and continents. A complex man-built structure, resembling both a map of a spiritual dance and the biological structures of the human brain is intriguing and at the same time frightening. In some traditions mazes, shapes as circles represent a meandering but purposeful journey: a journey or path to our own center and back again out into the world. Passing through a maze is always difficult, but if in the end you find what you were looking for, even it’s just a way out is rewarding, as any hero’s journey. One person enters the maze and different one comes out of it, even though the face is the same.

‌The project is fed and informed by the ideas of Carl’s Jung’s collective unconscious and individualisation and Joseph Campbell’s lectures on ancient myths and how they influence our perceptions of the world today. Circles and spheres represent both wholeness, connection and heavy weight of inner contemplations.
