Interpretation of Sleeping Beauty from a depth psychology point of view
ULMANOVÁ, Veronika
The bachelor thesis deals with the fairy tale of Sleeping Beauty in the conception of students of the Studio of Art Therapy at the Faculty of Education of the University of South Bohemia. The theoretical part of the thesis focuses on basic concepts and explains its conception from the perspective of psychoanalysis and analytical psychology. The next part introduces Projective intervention Art Therapy, its theoretical background, method and art techniques used in the thesis. The following chapters present the most widespread variants of the story of Sleeping Beauty and its interpretations. The research is based on a total of 78 artifacts (35 thematic watercolors, 43 collages) from 38 students of Art Therapy and on interviews with four of students. The analysis of artifacts shows us that the most common portrayed parts of the Fairy tale story of Sleeping Beauty are the stages of the plot of the story (from the stage of the sleeping princess to her awakening). The interviews tell us that artifacts can be used primarily when it is dealt with topics related to the individual's identity. That contains all the areas that need to be worked out on this path - bad features, parental complex, the connection between our head and our heart, relating to others, etc.
Symbolism of the tree and use of this theme in Art Therapy
HEJDOVÁ, Kateřina
The thesis deals with the symbolism of a tree and its use in art therapy. The tree is considered a symbol of personality and allows insight into personality structures and dynamics. The research uses the interpretation of the artwork in the sense of project-interventional art therapy together with the knowledge of the Baum Test (Koch, Altmann). The tree was qualitatively examined in the pictures of art therapy students and psychiatric hospital clients in the treatment of addiction. The sample includes 20 respondents. The aim was to present the work with tree symbolism in these groups, to understand the meaning of individual tree representation and to compare the groups. The tree was examined in a less obvious way in the myth of Adam and Eve. The results of the research offered insight into the possible personality characteristics of the respondents and outlined questions and suggestions for possible follow-up art therapy work with the individual.
