Artist’s Description:

Shadow Self marked the beginning of my exploration into Carl Jung’s theories on the “shadow self.” The piece features a literal shadow, permanently cast as a silhouette, reflecting Jung’s idea that:

“Everyone carries a shadow, and the less it is embodied in the individual’s conscious life, the blacker and denser it is. If an inferiority is conscious, one always has a chance to correct it.” – Carl Jung

Originally sculpted in plaster in 2023, the shape was taken directly from the shadow of my own body. This was translated into an 8-foot plaster cast, which I then carved, sanded, and polished by hand. The final version has been moulded and cast in Cold Cast Iron and mounted on a flat steel base.
