The Longing of the Oracle, 2024

An analogue photography journal documenting each meditative writing ritual during the year 2023-2024.

This project arose from Maria Stella’s thesis, "Endingbeginning", at the Gerrit Rietveld Academy, where she explored the concept of longing and the figure of the Pythia, the Oracle of ancient Greece. Pythia’s longing serves as a guiding light, illuminating the mysteries beyond time and space. Her story, like this collection, is woven with endless threads.
