Inspired by the cinematic experience of the Avant-garde film, The Color of Pomegranates, this image series artistically narrates a young woman's journey, her heart—a pomegranate—ejected from her body. It's a visual dance of the heart and body as vessels. She tries to bury her heart, but ultimately collapses, her golden arm against her yellow ochre attire imbuing an oriental essence. This golden hue symbolizes the material, masculine world—a stark contrast to her soft, feminine essence. The series culminates with the Temperance card, embodying balance and duality, marking the end of a life cycle among dead dates. This imagery transcends mere action, evoking a dream-like consciousness—a liberating exploration of the human psyche unbound by rationality or morality, where dreams and imagination become the ultimate freedom.


Instead of showing genuine activity, the visuals are intended to simulate conscious staginess, a dreamy aspect that is not actually a dream, but rather what we believe dreams are meant to be. Free from the constraints of reason, morality, and taste, dreams and imagination are coded representations of the complete mental freedom of the human condition.
