Taking its title from William Blake, I Sought My Soul, considers a contemporary romanticism, a new  sublime in the world. Due to impending threats from war, climate change, disease, new technologies,  identity politics, and unregulated markets, the 2020s thus far has been an era of political, economic,  and social turmoil. In a world increasingly shaped by new technologies and Artificial Intelligence, the  question of identity and the self is fundamentally being redefined. This resulted into a longing for  otherworldly and collective guidance. Mysticism, spirituality, new religions, and the feminine divine  have become societally accepted means of answering increasingly prescient existential questions.
