BLIND MIND

PIONEERED BY THE POET JUSTINUS KERNER AND USED BY MANY PSYCHOLOGISTS SUCH AS HERMANN RORSHACH, PIERRE AMOUR REVISITS THE PRACTICE OF KLECKSOGRAPHY,

ART OF MAKING IMAGES FROM INKBLOTS OR PAINT.

CAPTIVATED BY THE SINGULAR PERCEPTION OF OUR PERSONALITY, AMOUR PRESENTS A NEW ALTERNATIVE OF THE KNOWN TECHNIQUE THAT STUDIES AND MEASURE VARIOUS UNCONSCIOUS PARTS OF THE SUBJECT'S PERSONALITY.

THIS METHOD, EXPLOITING THE HUMAN TENDENCY TO PERCEIVE MEANINGFUL CONNECTIONS OR PATTERNS BETWEEN UNRELATED THINGS, ALSO KNOWN AS APOPHENIA, GIVES THE ARTIST THE OPPORTUNITY TO FOCUS ON THE DISTINCTIVENESS OF OUR IDENTITY AND THE POWER OF ITS CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS CHARACTERISTICS.

"WHILE THE STRENGTH OF CONSCIOUSNESS DETERMINES OUR ACTIONS, THE POWER OF OUR UNCONSCIOUS SHAPES OUR REACTIONS."
