The history of Western art is the result of a Judeo-Christian heredity that has for centuries developed a deeply rooted relationship between art and religion. Only fairly recently, with the start of modernism and the arrival of contemporary art, have these two spheres been considered as separate disciplines. The Mystical Self derives its form both from these very considerations and from the wish to reopen a dialogue between contemporary art and religion or, perhaps, "to search for lost intimacy", in the words of Bataille.

Starting from the idea that making art, as I believe, is no longer a question of "meaning" so much as "being", this project aims at inquiring into a transcendental sphere that also involves the artists themselves, because they too are people.

Inner experience is a journey towards the limits of human possibilities that goes beyond the threshold in order to become lost in the
normal">beyond, in that non-place where communication between human reason and the sacred dimension comes about. However, to think about spirituality does not mean simply dwelling on humanity's personal research into the infinite, but also to consider enormous world-wide social problems. As we know, many international situations are covered up and pigeonholed as problems regarding a belief: in fact they are part of a system of egoisms and claims that have purely political and economic motivations.
Arial;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-language:ZH-CN">内在的经验是一个对于限制人类可能性的旅程，超越了极限为了变成在失去中超越，因为没有地方可以让人类的理性与神圣维度的产生之间的沟通。然而，思考关于精神性并不意味着简单的沉淀于人类的个人无限的研究，但也要考虑巨大的全球性的社会问题。我们都知道，很多国际情况被遮掩和分类问题，对于这个有个信念：事实上他们作为自我主义系统的一部分，要求纯粹的政治和经济动机。

Enriched by international experience, artists must be able to create a universal dialogue capable of looking beyond sterile political maps or various cultural nationalisms. With this in mind a genuine dialogue between religions can come about, one that is able to spark off a process of mutual understanding. In this way our convictions can be fertilized by the intuitions of others, without falling into the trap of winning over others. The outcome is a confrontation based, not on single dogmas, but on the interiority of each individual who has felt obliged to take part in it and who has made the most of the situation in order to put his own sensibility on the line, while at the same time insisting on the need for greater tolerance and understanding.
Arial;mso-ansi-language:EN-US;mso-fareast-language:ZH-CN">通过国际经验的丰富，艺术家必须能够创造一个全球性的对话，能够放眼枯燥无味的政治地图或各种各样的文化民族主义。牢记这点，宗教间真正的对话才能产生，一个能够引起相互理解个方法。在这样的方法里，我们的信念通过别人的直觉受益，而不是落入赢得别人的陷阱。结果是一个对抗基础，不是单一的教条，但是在每个人内在可以感受到必要的参加，并取得最大的位置，为了把自己的情感在线，同时坚持需要更大的宽容和理解。

Through its selection of videos, this project tries to give an answer and to lead to reflections on some "simple" questions: what are we looking for? Is it possible to attempt to express a religious conscience without the trappings of traditional dogmas? Without gods/divinities, churches, or reassuring links to morality? A world not consoled by familiar religious imagery? And how do artists work with such common concepts as faith, meditation, or religious symbolism?

Humanity's inborn self-questioning is obviously not a problem related to some specific cultural background: after all, we are all vainly facing the same questions and answers that our mind manages to conceive, and they differ from each other only slightly.

The artists selected come from ten different countries, from Russia, Nigeria, Japan, Turkey, Egypt, Iraq, Italy…, so as to be able to give the widest ranging view of a theme that universally and indistinctively touches us all. Even without it being obvious, spirituality is certainly an integral part of our daily life, something we cannot escape and that, on the contrary, tempts us like a half-open door waiting to be opened wide…
