Series: Protean Micro-Macrocosm
     
Influenced by Jung's theories on Protean Flux,  "Protean Micro-Macrocosm" explores the metaphoric and physical/aesthetic links between the Micro and the Macro through the ambiguous shapes studied through microscope and telescope,. While microorganisms can embody the life in it’s most basic form, a galactic body speaks to the metaphysical. This relationship between Science and Mysticism reflects an inner struggle between conviction in reason and logic and a despondent yearning for spiritual assurance.
