Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The concept of merger experience between the subject and the object has been used in a positive way, although it contains a manifest irrationality by implying the idea that the self can participate in the corporeal space of the other. This study tried to ranscend this irrationality by elaborating this concept through psychoanalytic theories including the "fragmented body". The infantile experience of the discordance with one's own bodily reality enables us to integrate the irrational merger experience between the self and the other. Contemporary expression of art offers us occasions of discovering the logic of merger between human bodies, and thus opens a space of practice of care that grasps mutual corporeal experience on the level of undifferenciated self and other.
