COLUCCI, Alfredo Menotti  e  WOILER, Ester. Study and investigation of archaic traces in drawings: new methods. Rev. bras. psicanál [online]. 2014, vol.48, n.1, pp. 173-190. ISSN 0486-641X.

Creative reconstructions of a seven year-old's drawings allowed us to observe that they corresponded to the expression of primitive anxieties related to archaic fantasies about conception, implantation, and pregnancy. There were three reconstructions: the first one took place at the time of the analysis, 29 years ago; the second one was possible by the digitalization of the drawings, which extended the inquiry by granting access to the primitive mind; the third reconstruction, through the strengthening of the drawings' strokes, allowed us to access new levels of expression. The capacity of the mind to inscribe itself on several planes, like a palimpsest, thanks to the pulsion of life, is the object of this inquiry. The authors suggest a two-level reading: the present reality and the historical truth. These points allow the mind to get closer to its "truth", the object of psychoanalysis - a "truth" that allows for the analytical construction of the patient's identity.
