O estudo da representação de si através da obra fotográfica de Francesca Woodman numa perspectiva psicodinâmica e projectiva
Advisor(s)
Abstract(s)
Neste presente trabalho pretendemos reflectir sobre as dificuldades da construção do
self uno e coeso a partir do estudo da obra fotográfica de Francesca Woodman
reflectindo sobre a noção de representação de si e identidade. Para a análise do
funcionamento psíquico de Francesca Woodman foram utilizados conceitos
psicanalíticos e elementos da metodologia projectiva Rorschach. De forma a estudar a
obra fotográfica foram definidos procedimentos específicos do Rorschach de modo a
avaliar a sua identidade, partindo do princípio que a obra fotográfica é considerada
como um auto-retrato da autora. Os dados obtidos evidenciaram a presença da
perturbação psíquica borderline, apresentando um self indefinido, fragmentado e com
ausência de limites traduzindo uma identidade fragilizada. A obra fotográfica de
Francesca Woodman representa uma busca incessante da procura da sua identidade.
ABSTRACT------In this work, we intend to reflect on the difficulties of building a cohesive self from the study of the photographic work of Francesca Woodman, reflecting on the notion of selfrepresentation and identity. For the analysis of the psychological functioning of Francesca Woodman, psychoanalytic concepts and elements of Rorschach projective methodology were applied. In order to study the photographic work, Rorschach specific procedures were defined to assess Woodman’s identity, assuming that the photographic work is considered a self-portrait of the author. The data obtained showed the presence of a borderline psychic disturbance, presenting an undefined and fragmented self, with no boundaries, reflecting a fragile identity. The photographic work of Francesca Woodman is a relentless pursuit of search for identity.
