ResumoMarybeth Carter’s paper, “Crystalizing the Universe in Geometrical Figures,” draws on the creative works of artist Hilma af Klint and psychologist C. G. Jung to illustrate their use of geometrical figures as a form of code to denote states of consciousness integral to human development. Three key areas are explored common to af Klint and Jung: (1) mediumistic experiences popular during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries; (2) the use of trance or imaginal states to access “invisible” worlds; and (3) the use of symbols and geometrical figures to express their insights regarding individual and cultural potentials.
