The Story
What is SOULITH?
A portmanteau of "Soul" and "Monolith," Soulith is…
- An inquiry into the nature of existence, inspired by Jung’s Collective Unconscious and the mysteries of the soul across culture.
- Soul as monolith, souls as monoliths, embodied by and mediated through object.
- An invitation, to wear philosophy, to philosophize through wearing.
- Pneu, Atma Ruh, Neph, Tama, Hun, Waka.
- 7 attempts from 7 different languages and cultures to come up with words or ways trying to articulate what having a soul means.
- Distinct in form, united in spirit, an inter-connected bridge
- To carry questions of existence as tangible weight against the corpus.
- Soul in the shape of stones, suspended mid-air; traversing dreams, the universe.
- Transcends adornment, a shared symbol—a language, a poem, a meditation, on unity.
- Shapes that gained gravity, forms embodying threads—woven from universality into silver, grounding the often unseen.
