Inspired by the theories of Carl Jung, The Beauty of It explores the duality between the conscious and the unconscious. The blurred boundaries of this dichotomous relationship don’t always allow us to distinguish between reality and dreams. The piece exposes the fragility of the human being, and reflects on the authenticity of self-created actions and characters. What is the real mask? Is everything we experience real? What’s the difference between acting and behaving as we do? The Beauty of It uses recordings of Dr. Carl Jung’s 1957 interview as an external narrator to plunge us into a state of reflection, where the performer is the object of study, but also a mirror of ourselves. Swept along by different qualities of movement and expression, this work is an immersion in the human unconscious.
