C. G. Jung, who works on the collective unconscious, points out that the soul in fairy tales or myths explains itself, just like the spirits in dreams. What gives clues to the person by appearing in different characters in her dreams is that she is not aware of it yet, but she knows it. Participation in the transformation process, which Jung considers as one of the forms of rebirth, constitutes the focus of this study. Everything that comes into contact with each other in various ways in an endlessly repetitive movement is transformed and reborn.
The single-channel video, shot in the Phrygian Valley in Afyon, which has been the subject of various legends, is shaped by the story of Kybele’s return to her home. The only sacred thing for Kybele, who lives in Phrygia, is soil. It gives birth from the soil, grows from the soil and nourishes from the soil. Kybele knows how to be reborn even after the most severe destruction. But one day, she sent a piece of herself underground. Although the mother Goddess Kybele, who has no master, buried the part of herself that she was ashamed of, she was born more than Homer, especially in Anatolian lands.
