We are surrounded by routine, the need to fit in, and social mimicry. Clichés, imposed upon us, shape our ideas and behavior patterns.
We defy our basic values and justify our lies, seeking acceptance,
adjustment, and social approval. Amidst this, the feelings we were born with eventually cease to bring ecstasy, love, and passion. Initially thought of as a diary of loneliness, this project transformed into a journey of self-discovery and a return to long-forgotten questions. It became a search for the ancient, sin-free archetypal Adam—a foundation free from civilization's imposed values, where we can still choose our path.
"And they were both naked, the man and his wife, and were not ashamed." The path of learning moved from general to particular, from intellectual to animate. The helpless naked body experienced closeness to nature, undergoing metamorphoses of dehumanization and becoming an unconscious living object. It returned to being God's creature, loved by its creator. By decomposing the mind and discarding unnecessary elements, a new model of behavior was formed and tested in the real world in attempts to fill the heart's emptiness. Though emptiness was hesitant to leave, attempts continued. After numerous metamorphoses, a point of balance was reached. The transformations ended, and I discovered myself and my perfectly imperfect body.
