the fantastic invasion

March, 2013

This short interprets the theme of Joesph Conrad's "The Heart of Darkness" through photographed ink along with a quote from the novel. Man is innately wild and uncivilized, and when left alone and away from social constraints, he will slowly reveal his true being.

Music: "The Eyeland" - Michael Giacchino

Full Text:
“I think the knowledge came to him at last — only at the very last. But the wilderness had found him out early, and had taken on him a terrible vengeance for the fantastic invasion. I think it had whispered to him things about himself which he did not know, things of which he had no conception till he took counsel with this great solitude — and the whisper had proved irresistibly fascinating. It echoed loudly within him because he was hollow at the core.”
- Joseph Conrad, Heart of Darkness (Said by the novel’s protagonist Marlow about a dying Mr. Kurtz)
