Comics as a psychic scene: Between sequentiality and excess - 2018.

This article seeks, within a psychopathological perspective, to account for the phenomenological, narrative, and formal characteristics of comics, which were proposed as artistic mediation as part of a therapeutic group organized in an adult day hospital. It was through Manuel’s productions that the projective movements generated by the format of this medium, in terms of spatial and temporal inscriptions, could be grasped and could offer us valuable clinical information about the psychic reality of the patient. Comics acted as a support for facilitating the emergence of some psychic experiences, in terms of corporeality on the one hand, which can be grasped under the figure of the double that relies on the sequentiality of comics, and in terms of psychic temporality on the other hand, which allows itself to be apprehended through Manuel’s productions as circular and infinitely rhythmic.
