I started this comic as an Autobiographical comic project with advanced drawing students. I’ve just finished another page about high adventure in a big family in the 1970s. I don’t know if the stories will ever end. I still have so many stories to unlock from the 1980s.
My Hyper mythology is the instantaneous creation of myths, keeping known myths in mind, based on cues or omens or mystery or magical events that are inexplainable or fantastical. Paying attention to instances huge and tiny. Trying to understand why they puzzle me, why i can’t explain them with logic or learned experience.
“You already know about alchemy. It is about penetrating to the Soul of the World, and discovering the treasure that has been reserved for you.”
- Paulo Coelho
