The archaic landscape becomes a mystic space, enigmatic and ambivalent.

It is a prison and an area of freedom, a dwelling and a threat, the projection space of inner mental states.

In the opening sequence of Hiroshi Teshigahara’s congenial film adaptation Suna no Onna [The Woman in the Dunes] from 1964 for which Kobo Abe wrote the screenplay, the director depicts the monumentality of a dune following close upon a mysterious detailed image of a single grain of sand as if he simultaneously saw an all-encompassing metaphor in the tension field of the particle and the whole, the individual and the universe with microstructure and macrostructure.
