The image that transforms

This research proposes as a guiding thread the approaches presented by Joy Shaverien on the transformative potential of art in the context of art-analytic psychotherapy. These approaches are deepened through various contributions from Jungian psychology from the theoretical basis created by Carl Gustav Jung as well as authors such as Edward Edinger Carlos Amadeu Byington James Hillman or James Hall among others. The analysis presents a case that allows us to reflect on these transformative processes and the way in which analytical psychology contributes providing a solid and creative base that supports and enriches the theory and practice of art therapy.
