Self-knowledge in art expression
Šimánková, Kateřina ; Kučera, Miloš (referee)
This qualitative thesis deals with self-knowledge in art expression. The work examines how the creator understands to his or her art product, what happens in the dialogue over the product and how this understanding impacts self-knowledge and self-transformation. The work represents the principle of expression and expressiveness as a phenomenon and mandala as a specific instrument of art expression, which is set into a professional framework through its origin and tradition of use in therapeutic practice. The work is dedicated to the process in which the meaning is explored and constitutes three stages - expression, reflection and analysis. Theory of expression, dynamic art therapy and hermeneutic approach are presented as three basic theoretical approaches in this work. The work describes three case reports in a dynamic process and interprets them through formal and thematic analysis, or more precisely it shows which strategies are used to find the meaning in picture and what is the character of the main topics. KEYWORDS Art expression, mandalas, self-knowledge, early adulthood, theory of expression, dynamic art therapy, hermeneutics.
