  • More about Visual Art and Projects of the Self

Katrina Mitcheson challenges Ricoeur's narrative account of self-construction, proposing a plural and corporeal hermeneutics of the self through visual art. It exposes practices that contribute to our subjugation and enables experimentation in self-construction.

Format: Hardback

Publisher: Edinburgh University Press


Katrina Mitcheson addresses the problem of how a complex self is constructed and how a hermeneutics of the self can avoid reproducing a subjugated self, critically examining Ricoeur's narrative account of self-construction. She develops an alternative account of a plural and corporeal hermeneutics of the self, exploring how visual art can operate as a critical technology of the self. Art not only exposes practices that contribute to our subjugation but can also discover, explore, and affect bodily processes, enabling experimentation in self-construction.
