Krater - The visionary art style of Carl Jung

Kratér is a LoRA trained on 80 images of Carl Jung's visionary art which he created during the period between 1914 through 1917 while compiling his Black Books into a more formal record called, Liber Novus. This LoRA is an attempt to capture the unique style and themes present in Jung's manuscript.

Key features and themes of Kratér's art style:

• Symbolic and Archetypal Imagery: Images will be rich in symbols and archetypes, drawing inspiration from mythology, religion, and alchemy.
  
  "I am of the opinion that the union of rational and irrational truth is to be found not so much in art as in the symbol per se; for it is the essence of the symbol to contain both the rational and irrational."
  

• Transformation and Individuation: Themes of personal growth, psychological development, and spiritual transformation will be prominent.
  
  "In community, we go to the source, which is the mother, / In singleness we go to the future, which is the engendering phallus."
  

• Influences and Parallels: The style will be influenced by Symbolism, Expressionism, and other artistic movements, while maintaining Jung's distinctive approach.
  

• Personal Mythology and cosmology: Images will reflect Jung's unique symbolic system and his exploration of the unconscious.
  

Kratér hopes to offer a tool for generating artwork that helps evoke the depth, complexity, and visionary spirit of Carl Jung's artistic expression.

"Whoever speaks in primordial images speaks with a thousand voices; he enthrals and overpowers... he transmutes our personal destiny into the destiny of mankind, and evokes in us all those beneficent forces that ever and anon have enabled humanity to find a refuge from every peril and to outlive the longest night."
