Mare Incognitum
‘Mare Incognitum’ is a concept that explores the ideas of undisclosed seas – Freud also used this term as a metaphor for the unconscious human mind. In his forthcoming exhibition at Olsen Gallery, Stephen Bird poses questions for exploring the unknown; from travel, moving through life beyond the mundane, and even into unconsciousness. ‘Mare Incognitum’ depicts the imaginary voyages and how far real-life can extend into mystic journeys.
