Trauma and art, "made one for the other". The first initially humanizes and then impels the subject to creativity; the other tries to represent the unspeakable of the traumatic experience. Art is located in the field of the word, which constitutes the subject and reconstitutes it, enabling the resignification of the effects of trauma. The psychoanalytic clinical experience, combined with the observation of the creative act of notable authors and ordinary people, demonstrates this condition of the human. It is necessary to make chaos some meaning and life, art. This article is based on psychoanalytic theory and its objective is to articulate trauma with art. The first one is essential to the constitution of the subject; the other is the possibility of representing affections and sustaining existence. We will initially approach the concept of trauma-based on clinical observations; then, art in the context of trauma illustrated with stories of people marked by suffering and creativity. In the sequence, the art in (and of) the word based on circumstances of resignification of the traumatic experience, with input from cinematographic and theatrical art, from the mythological narrative, from the notorious case report and clinical fragment is described. Finally, the art of written speech, citing authors focused on the quality of the text from an aesthetic and emotional point of view, whose writing, as art, is inscribed in the body. We hope to contribute to academic discussion and clinical practice.
