Through this artifact, I raise themes of the collective unconscious, the “Shadow” and the “Persona,” described by Erich Neumann in his research.
Photo: Volodymyr KhomenkoAdvertisementI created my hat from newspaper pages — stitched together reports of the First World War and today’s war of Russia against Ukraine.
The crown of the hat bears the outline map of Ukraine from the time of the First World War.
The belief in progress, rationality, and scientific knowledge – while ignoring the dark side of human nature – turned out to be one of the precursors of catastrophe: the First World War.
If the Shadow remains unconscious, it begins to live its own life, and eventually destroys the illusion of the Persona.
