With the portraits, I’m doubling/mirroring/twinning a character instead of an image. The character emerged when I made the structural support for Significant Location. This shorthand is also meant to reference the esoteric phrase “As Above So Below.” With my symbol, I’m drawing the Magician, the archetype who is often linked with that phrase and who can be thought of as a patron saint to artists. The Magician appears in both the Tarot’s Major Arcana and in psychoanalyst Carl Jung’s Liber Novus (1915-1930.) In both cases, The Magician is a creative force, a conduit between the conscious and the unconscious, and a channel for the rational and the irrational to merge. Carl Jung proposed that symbols are the only way to express the conscious and unconscious mind. My symbol: the 6-pronged, mirrored figure, serves as a shorthand for the Magician. <img width="2701" height="3712" width_o="2701" height_o="3712" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fcb70285d802f4270f2c8e1c2f9efe1c5d10c7702fbbf0f390cd1253e4bf6fbe/6_Rombach-AJ_install-shot-portrait-4.jpg" data-mid="166973522" border="0" data-scale="83" alt="Portrait (4), installed at FJORD" data-caption="Portrait (4), installed at FJORD" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fcb70285d802f4270f2c8e1c2f9efe1c5d10c7702fbbf0f390cd1253e4bf6fbe/6_Rombach-AJ_install-shot-portrait-4.jpg" /> https://ajrombach.com/reflection-works Thu, 16 Jun 2022 18:56:31 +0000 AJ Rombach https://ajrombach.com/reflection-works the reflection works 2022-. ongoing series&nbsp; <img width="3707" height="5976" width_o="3707" height_o="5976" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8d7e0dbb1f37613d81f77dd174529530598fffc4c4d70cc4e1afbe2528e79176/Rombach_06_01_the-waves.jpg" data-mid="217722939" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8d7e0dbb1f37613d81f77dd174529530598fffc4c4d70cc4e1afbe2528e79176/Rombach_06_01_the-waves.jpg" /> <img width="4810" height="3754" width_o="4810" height_o="3754" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8900eed631079bdd73159e3417d8e95a9216434e8ef6e01482a07820ca0acb9e/hearts_chambers_1-2.jpg" data-mid="188983743" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8900eed631079bdd73159e3417d8e95a9216434e8ef6e01482a07820ca0acb9e/hearts_chambers_1-2.jpg" /> <img width="4860" height="3821" width_o="4860" height_o="3821" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/9ef087f49359d882cb8092c69f21267c6217a305760207a31b1a8c77a24823a4/hearts_chambers_2.jpg" data-mid="188983744" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/9ef087f49359d882cb8092c69f21267c6217a305760207a31b1a8c77a24823a4/hearts_chambers_2.jpg" /> <img width="1501" height="1934" width_o="1501" height_o="1934" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/0b518d9990df292cee596b06771a800c0f437d516f1e615d5da65b18670e2901/KITE_B_SIDES_REAL.jpg" data-mid="165628123" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/0b518d9990df292cee596b06771a800c0f437d516f1e615d5da65b18670e2901/KITE_B_SIDES_REAL.jpg" /> <img width="1558" height="1999" width_o="1558" height_o="1999" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/eac44e5dba7b2c8bb0cb6cbab3242e6aa62aca5bc039f62cb2e77d369c7c6b9b/1_real_twin_aj_finaljpg.jpg" data-mid="165628013" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/eac44e5dba7b2c8bb0cb6cbab3242e6aa62aca5bc039f62cb2e77d369c7c6b9b/1_real_twin_aj_finaljpg.jpg" /> <img width="3024" height="4032" width_o="3024" height_o="4032" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/78fab1334e169daa904b0363b49a7addb3034683e7cf5b4e99602b0bc3c4b338/IMG_0257-2.jpg" data-mid="145646625" border="0" data-no-zoom="true" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/78fab1334e169daa904b0363b49a7addb3034683e7cf5b4e99602b0bc3c4b338/IMG_0257-2.jpg" /> In this series, I work in doubles or more. I invite the viewer to compare the material and gestural variations of my translations, to determine what is similar and what is different, and to move around the pieces for different viewing angles and image comprehension. Essentially, I invite the viewer to add actual parts together for one whole viewing of the work. The viewer is asked to do some of the same activities that I perform in order to make it. This gesture was meant to engage in principles of Gestalt Psychology, a theory of how perception works. &nbsp; &nbsp; This series also has a more esoteric reading as a part of its namesake. I originally associated the phrase “As Above So Below” with the image because of the symmetry that makes its up and its down feel interchangeable. As I understand it, this phrase and the other Hermetic principles are about individual alchemical transformation in relation to and with a communal whole system. Interestingly this Hermetic idea of “one whole system” aligns with the principles of Gestalt based on holism. <img width="1901" height="2548" width_o="1901" height_o="2548" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/dbd8af44e93e0e596842a0c89aa0ac386452eb58ddd86bb052cdf5a021f4c3df/significant_location_mel.jpeg" data-mid="147713263" border="0" data-scale="60" data-no-zoom="true" alt="Significant Location, 15&rdquo;
