June 2009 Theme - the small hidden door

"The dream is the small hidden door in the deepest and most intimate sanctum of the soul, which opens to the primeval cosmic night that was soul long before there was conscious ego and will be soul far beyond what a conscious ego could ever reach."

- C. G. Jung

Curated by Karen Rudd and Ariane Schrack
