MYTHOLOGY OF SELF

A box on my head

The view from the center

Psyche

The world tree

Axis mundi

The mandala

The phoenix

The labyrinth

A God-shaped hole

Sisyphus and the rock

The flight of Icarus

The chariot of the sun

Finding the way home

The journey

The appearance of a white hart

Open to my own humanity

A fool, a cup and a wounded fisher king

Do I dare to eat a peach?

Seeking the Ox

Ten ox herding pictures
