Visual artist and storyteller Lubomir Arsov joins Bernhard Guenther to discuss the mission of art, creativity, and shadow work in the context of our times. Lubomir is the creator of the award-winning animated film "IN-SHADOW: A Modern Odyssey" (2017), which explores the fragmented unconscious of our times.
He recently released the follow-up “KINGDOM” (2024), a visceral audio-visual experience that maps out the initiatory path of empowerment and awakening. He's also the director and creator of the short film "The Forest King,” a modern interpretation of the Scandinavian myth Erlkonig. The film depicts the dangers of Transhumanism and VR technology with Luciferian and Ahrimanic themes.
Lubomir and Bernhard discuss many current themes in light of the evolution of consciousness, the process of individuation, the battle of dark vs. light, Transhumanism, the splitting of humanity, inorganic vs organic timelines, the importune of finding our courage and personal myth, and much more
