It is no use crying over spilt milk

This work called “It is no use crying over spilt milk”. This story is that a cup of milk was spilled by the Trickster in my room. I can not see the Trickster but, I can feel the Trickster’s moving in my room.

concept

My art project is intended to combine research based on Jungian psychology with regard to the archetype of the trickster and the influence of the Japanese view of life and death. This project will focus on the the main features of an exploration of my previous research into the trickster, in particular its appearance as traces of children’s play and I will make and upload impromptu arts in this blog.

A definition of the trickster

Generally, the trickster is defined as a swindler, an important and mischief in folk tradition. Trickster is known that Paul Radin named it from the study of the indian folk tale and Carl Gustav Jung took up it in "an archetype idea". It is a character type of the super individual of the human being as "a trickster archetype". The concept called the trickster was defined as human psychology and the philosophical important concept. It considered in the 20th century by Paul Radin, Kerenyi Kal and Carl Gustav Jung. In addition, I recnsider a myth and want to pay attention to achievement by Claude Gutave revi=straws which established structural anthropology. Trickster is ravager and on one side a creator likewise. His character is contradiction of good and evil and he has a role which a mediator of opposition to binomial the middle function.
