The Shadow Within

The Shadow Within
"The completion of a human being is through the embodiment of the shadow within."
- Carl Gustav Jung

Everyone hides some part of them considering it indecent and inappropriate to conform to societal norms. This concept is as old as consciousness exists in human beings since most of these hidden traits are primitive human emotions such as aggression, sexual desires and selfish notions.

This project aims to bring awareness to this concept. Every human being is susceptible to this concept. Realizing the existence of the things we hide away in our subconscious gives way to a more healthy and authentic lifestyle.
A place of Realization
A place that reflects the side of society where we all deny each other ’s flaws but still
look for acceptance.

A visual statement towards hypocrisy and selfishness.

A place of Acceptance
A place inside the mind where we hide deepest parts of our personality.
This is a place of redemption and acceptance.

A place of Confrontation
The place where the shadow is confronted and then accepted.
A place of Ascension
A place where it is realized that no one is perfect and everyone has a shadow they
need to accept.
