Harmonious Dissonance (Pleneau Bay, Antarctica 2007)

Amidst the sensory overload that is Antarctica, moments of intimate minimalism can cleanse, ground, and clarify. Although the frenetic elemental forces are still very much present, they are somehow quieted and even integrated as they are distilled. Archetypes abound amidst the ice. The abstracted triad of zones mirrors many patterns, whether Jung, Rothko, or Joseph Campbell. Freud's iceberg metaphor has parallels here as well.
