my work: monomyth journey I-1

"Mapping the Myth of My Own I"
journey 1

Mapping human experience. Where do I come from. What is the path. What is left of the source. The metomorphosis.

In simple words: I am taking personal knowledge (dealing with disappointment, anger, difficult relatives, search for the grail ) as a background; I try to explain it and structure it using monomyth.

The drawings are a map. They represent (rather than depict) schema of the events.

PS: Joseph John Campbell (March 26, 1904 – October 30, 1987) was an American mythologist, writer and lecturer, best known for his work in comparative mythology and comparative religion. His work is vast, covering many aspects of the human experience. His philosophy is often summarized by his phrase: "Follow your bliss."

Joseph Campbell's term monomyth, also referred to as the hero's journey, refers to a basic pattern found in many narratives from around the world. This widely distributed pattern was described by Campbell in The Hero with a Thousand Faces (1949).

This is all about mapping human experience onto the structure of monomyth. Taking my personal knowledge (dealing with disappointment, anger, difficult relatives, search for the grail ) as a background; I try to explain it and structure it using monomyth.

Trying to map the workings of my mind.

my work: T.S.Eliot Waste Land

"Reading Eliot"
handbound edition of 25
2010

When reading complicated writing, sometimes, we drift away. A line from a poem may trigger a memory, and we stay with the thought, while turning the pages of the book, and not seeing the words. We get to the end and we realise, that we had not read much, really. We remain with a few lines of the poem interlaced with a list of our things-to-do, drops of memory and random springs of thought.

I like those drawings. They look like they hold some sort of truth in them. However, I will have to narrow down in the future.

coExposure: private view dancers

Private view went well.
Janine had her dancers, who were totally professional and incredibly patient! They did a piece, which Susan Johanknecht (our course leader) called a dance with surprisingly bookish qualities. Hey, that is a different thing to say! Not just "nice", "lovely", "strong". Those generic words that we use when we have no opinion at all!

coExposure is hung

Hey! - the show is hung and it is looking good!
