Symbolic VR - original portrait painting by

Description

The ancient Chinese sage Confucius reportedly said that “signs and symbols rule the world, not words or laws.” The power and meaning of the world’s oldest symbols are still alive. Found in the surviving works of art and artifacts of the oldest civilizations, they tell about the material, social and spiritual life of our ancestors. Nevertheless, ignorance about their origin and meaning is now more and more visible. They disappear in the consciousness of new generations and are replaced by new ones.
Symbolic VR is an image showing the transformation, evolution of signs and symbols. From the times of ancient, ancient Mediterranean cultures to today. From primality, purity, depth, simplicity to neon, glowing, screaming, tempting, and at the same time warning forms and shapes.
We classify the world by means of codes and symbolic structures, trying to organize and tame the excess of stimuli. The ability to give meaning to signs and symbols enabled communication and reflection. So let’s remember about their enormous power, because they can be used for categorization or manipulation.
