logos review 2019: “The Beauty of It”

“The Beauty of It”

Beauty influences the duality between the conscious and the unconscious. This dichotomy in a person means that we cannot distinguish between the real reality and what the dream is.

In this scenic proposal, man's fragility is exposed as well as a reflection on the authenticity of the actions or characters created by himself. The piece is inspired by a fragment of Carl Jung's interview with Dr. Richard I. Evans of the Department of Psychology at the University of Houston in August 1957.

“.. The person is partially the result of society's demands and on the other hand it is a compromise with what one wants to be or with what one likes to appear…. A man's whole personality is indescribable. His consciousness can be described, his unconscious cannot be described because the unconscious is always unconscious. No one can tell where the real man ends."
