AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'An artist lives in the perpetual night of the Arctic Circle during winter, making paintings which he interprets symbolically. Pressured by an upcoming exhibition and driven mad by his isolation, he seeks an escape, as well as a way to get to the heart of the meaning of art, so he digs.

'What follows is a surreal journey into the centre of the Earth as the artist overcomes a series of bizarre trials and tribulations, confronting the horror of his inner psyche and the terrible denizens who dwell deep underground.

'Ultimately, he must confront himself and the true nature of his world.'
