Irina Burda
"Control, Conflict, and Emptiness"

2025

About the Item

Shipped in roll Control, Conflict, and the Void explores the psychic undercurrents of the human condition through a postmodern lens, where fixed narratives dissolve and archetypal forces rise to the surface. At the heart of the work lies a tension between repression and expression — a confrontation with the "shadow," in the Jungian sense, where unconscious impulses and moral constructs wrestle for authority within the self. The presence of the fish — a primal and sacred symbol — invokes dual associations: in Christianity, the fish is a covert emblem of Christ, embodying spiritual transcendence and divine sacrifice; in the collective unconscious, it is a creature of the depths, carrying instinct, mystery, and ancient wisdom. This collision of the sacred and the instinctual reflects a central concern of postmodern spirituality: the fragmentation of belief and the search for meaning within the ruins of absolutes.
