Summary/Abstract: The graphic or plastic representation appears, since long-forgotten times, as a means of expressing a mythical symbolic thinking. If the paleolithic speech did not resist, the material creations of those who used it remained testimonies that evoked, axiomatically, the ability to imprint thought into material symbols. Myth has always been one of the most appropriate modes of expression in theatre. In the relationship between man and culture, which has been and will remain interrelational, of spatio-temporal and socio-political conditionality, the return to the primordial universe meets the need for certainties, durable essences, stability, and unambiguously explains the idea of communication through art.
