LIRIO, Daniel Rodrigues. Body suspension and the three dimensions of the intercorporealty. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2008, vol.42, n.2, pp. 58-68. ISSN 0486-641X.

This article focus on the body suspension, which consists in the elevation of a person by means of hooks pierced on the skin. This practice is a tipical contemporary phenomenon and, facilitated by internet, has been intensely diffused over the western world. In order to comprehend it, we use a psychoanalitical aproach to emphasize the relation dynamics among the typical actors of a suspension event: the suspendee, the suspender and the audience. In order to focus the intersubjective basis of this body intervention, we use the notion of intercorporealty. Its development is inspired on tools already used to comprehend the intersubjectivity: the fusional condition mother-baby, the empathy, the voyeurism, the specular relation and the simbolic mediation.

Palabras clave : Alterity; Body; Post-modernity; Pain; Intercorporealty.
