TARRA NOSTRA

Terra Nostra is a dreamscape, an elaborate allegory, infused with mysticism, symbolism, numerology, theology. There are tales nested within tales, dreams within dreams, a mirror of our world distorted beyond reason, but not recognition. 

 The individual is reduced to archetype, one aspect of a super-organism which devours itself, growing larger only in order to devour itself still more. In its nature can be found the many ironies of existence: In the act of creation one must destroy; in conquest one becomes subjugated; in piety one is most corrupted. 

This series explores a fundamental dilemma: How can we exist as a moral species if the nature of life itself requires that for one to rise, many must fall?
