‘Lungs breathing, heart pumping, stars rising and setting along the whirl of a great spiral - made of many many others’

The research on spirals as symbols of the connection between micro and macrocosmos is one that has been going on for almost two years and keeps on building an ever growing net of meanings. A sign to access deeper understanding of the movement of all things, a map to the labyrinth of our unconscious as well as the shape of the universe, it took me on a journey that brought me from physics and mathematics to anthropology, botanics and mysticism. What will be the next stop?
