Knot installation view

This project is a personal reflection on the book Chroniques d'un discours schizophrène by Nejia Zemni. Only one aspect of the story is explored: the relationship with the body in the context of psychosis.

The double bind is a psychoanalytic concept that involves giving two contradictory pieces of information to the interlocutor, thereby blocking communication and making the situation absurd. The double bind also exists between truth and falsehood, reality and imagination, the physical and the psychological. The sensation of one's own body and the image reflected back to others.

The skin of the schizophrenic is experienced as fragmented within an ununified self. The parts then exist independently and never form a whole.
