Esta é uma investigação sobre Memória. Na presente tese, partimos da compreensão de que a exploração de imagens magicamente ativadas na criação de trabalhos artísticos pode promover a transição entre diversos níveis de realidade, permitindo, a partir da exploração da arte da memória, a construção ou a emergência de significados complexos. Entendendo a memória como traço e utilizando a psicanálise como poética, exploramos as imagens magicamente ativadas pela memória, enquanto capacidade de (re) significação através de uma instalação artística que representou a transição do indivíduo em seu processo de re-conhecimento e re-invenção de si mesmo. / This is an investigation about memory.

This study sets out to demonstrate the usefulness of cybernetic description for grief therapy, specifically the field parental loss of a child. This paradigm was used to facilitate an alternate mode of conceptualisation, one engendering a more encompassing, aesthetic view. The following core cybernetic concepts were used: punctuation, complementarity, pattern and metapattern forming the framework of cybernetic description as applied. A literature study attempting to merge the gestalt of cybernetic description with that of bereavement theory, specifically that pertaining to the parental loss of a child, is presented. A single case study is described illustrating how cybernetic description is applied to the grief narrative. Arising out of this, the implications of cybernetic description for the field of grief and social work in general are outlined. / Social Work / M.A. (Social Science (Mental Health))
