Theme: HONORING THE SHADOW

All mediums are welcome.

The Shadow is a psychological term introduced by the late Swiss
psychiatrist Carl Jung. It is everything in us that is repressed,
undeveloped and denied, both dark and light. The shadow represents
all that the conscious person does not wish to acknowledge within themselves.
Jung emphasized the importance of being aware of shadow material and
incorporating it into conscious awareness. Otherwise we project these
attributes onto others. Honor your shadow by giving it visual form.

Deadline: 31 December 2010

Artworks will be permanently displayed on my website.
