Cycle de Vie

Details

Overview

A Man finds himself trapped with Civilisation and it's Discontents; taken by the Will to pleasure, and to power, he finds himself swinging wildly between Dionysian elation and desolate Nihilism as he is ground away by the friction between the Instincts and the Superego. He takes an unusual interest in one of his party girl flings, and can't shake her from his thoughts. Her presence stirs up the repressed Anima archetype from his hardened psyche. The influx of feeling she invokes breaks the man down into tears of desperation, he then feels instinctively drawn to the forest. There, in the primordial environment, he glimpses a vision of life which momentarily obliterates his ever-seeking Will and invokes a glimpse of the innate wisdom of the Self. And the rest, is silence!
