OLIVEIRA, Melina Del’Arco de. Art as a possible treatment direction in a psychosis clinic: a case report. SMAD, Rev. Eletrônica Saúde Mental Álcool Drog. (Ed. port.) [online]. 2006, vol.2, n.2, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1806-6976.

At a Psychosocial Care Center for alcohol and drugs users, a 29-year old psychotic patient presents an important comorbidity and dedicates himself to a therapeutic work involving art. In the art workshop, he reconstructs a character from the soccer world and restores his projects and social insertion. In the light of Lacan’s theory, the analyst witnessed this production, so that the subject himself could attribute a meaning to it, seeking meanings for himself. Thus, art can contribute to the reconstitution of meanings for the psychotic subject and exposing the artistic work clear the subject’s anonymity by inscribing him in the public, deviating the stigmatizing look of the Other.
