The Silent One

Artwork inspired by a description from Jung's Red Book (Liber Novus) entitled 'Death':

"I see densely pressed multitudes of men, old men, women, and children. Between them I see horses, oxen and smaller animals, a cloud of insects swarms around the multitude. They are already near; how stiff and cool they all look, their feet do not move, no noise sounds from their close ranks. They are all flowing past in an enormous stream. [...] The first rows have reached the point where the surf and the stream flow together violently. And it looks as if a wave of air were confronting the stream of the dead together with the surging sea, whirling them up high, scattering them in black scraps, and dissolving them in murky clouds of mist."
