In principio creavit Deus cœlum et terram.
Paul believes you need to be passionate about your passions
dream weaving abstract ideas into concrete
And mystifying the mundane
Pauls overjoyed interplay between mysticism and the profane in storytelling reflects humanity’s dual engagement with the sacred and the mundane. Mircea Eliade’s concept of “hierophany” highlights how sacredness manifests in ordinary objects, creating a bridge between the divine and the everyday. In modern art and culture, mysticism often resurfaces as a response to disenchantment with rationalism and modernity, offering alternative ways of perceiving reality. Storytelling, whether in literature or cinema, frequently explores this tension, using mystical elements to challenge or complement profane narratives, fostering contemplation of deeper existential truths
