“Everyone has memories of adventures within the mind, strange and pleasant memories, but not everyone is aware of adventures within the mind when they happen.”
Agnes Martin, Writings, 1991
behind the portal, a glass piece covers a photograph
Sometimes, we disappear, wrapped in our own head, travelling through memories and dreams. The body present in space, the mind and heart somewhere not to be found; there, past, present and imagination come together. When coming back, almost everything is forgotten, though a vague but deep feeling remains.
Deep inside of us, our subconscious world is alive, thriving on its own peculiar rhythm. Some might define it as being a chaotic realm but what if “In all chaos there is a cosmos, in all disorder a secret order.*”?
*The Archetype of the Collective Unconscious - Collected Works of C.G. Jung
Anywhere but Here is an attempt to grasp and materialise my own mental and subconscious imagery.
