Image, cinema and psychology: approaches between art and science

Abstract

Image, cinema and psychology - this article weaves a dialogue between these three extensive and complex topics to develop theoretical-conceptual approaches between art and science. From the cinematic art, some of its technical resources and concepts developed by this language, the article seeks to provide a bridge between the field of aesthetics and reflections on the process of subjectivation. The paper finds grounds on Deleuze's philosophy of image and time and Benjamin's understanding of the image as a substance shapes thought and time as an eternal instant that never ceases to update itself. Both theories are approached in a dialogical way to establish intersections with other cinema and cultural thinkers, as well as with some film works.
