Consciousness

Sophie Shapiro

Consciousness

The psyche does not come to an end where some physiological assumption or other stops. In other words, in each individual case that we observe scientifically, we have to consider the manifestations of the psyche in their totality.

Carl Jung, Collected Works, v9, para 113

This painting I dedicate to Carl Jung who inspires me daily.

    wonderful title, phenomenal colors, glorious composition sophie. there’s a fantastic pulsing sensuality at work here that gentle soft nudge of dawn and consciousness. the light draws my eye every time to the touches of pink and turquoise into the yellow orange and red. wow! instant fave for sure.

    Nice work, the colors remind me of semi precious stones, cabachons, rough cut and tumbled gems. The contrast of fire and ice is riveting.
