Borealen’s compass is a narrative choice: it suggests orientation, exploration and the possibility of getting lost. You might see an instrument, a star or simply a geometry. These readings can coexist without turning the sign into evidence.
Here, the mystical is a register of inquiry and contemplation. We are interested in the questions an image lets us ask: which direction are you following? Which reference points have you chosen? What lies outside your map?
Draw a circle and add a point, first at its centre and then at its edge. Write one word for each composition. You have built two interpretations from almost identical elements. Keep some distance between the drawing and the story you entrust to it.
