This article seeks to approach Antonio Peticov’s work in the light of analytic psychology. Jung considered imagination as one of the main functions of the psyche, that is, it is the direct expression of vital activity and a way the psychical energy manifests itself in consciousness. Through fantasy, individual can launch himself into a process of symbolization, becoming an inexhaustible creator of new cultural possibilities. The psyche, when it gets filled with images in a continuous flow, gives amplitude to the exterior experience. In this way, Peticov’s work emerges as a photography of the unconscious, revealing its personal and collective aspects. Contextualized within a historical moment, it provides us with a reading of the movement of its time, the zeitgeist, that is, the spirit of the time, and can also be prospective, indicating what is to come.
