Magnum Opus
The project explores alchemy as a practice between science, art and spirituality, investigating its history, symbolic language and influence on culture and art. Through the concept of the Great Work and Carl Gustav Jung’s interpretations, the research examines alchemy as a process of transformation not only of matter, but also of the individual, placing images and the archetypes of the Collective Unconscious at its centre.
