Euthymia

Euthymia represents a professional woman’s existential crisis in which workers of her own making support her delusions. Set in a high-vaulted chapel, Euthymia explores the character’s best possible level of performance, a state in which she is capable of functioning while in the throes of dysthymia - a numb, chronic lowness.
