Mother, an object of love and loss
Maman symbolises a nurturing mother who listens and embraces us. In psychoanalysis, the mother refers to the primary object of love and loss. Therefore, the name Maman represents a warm, welcoming, and trusted center where anyone can address their mental pain and discomfort through psychoanalysis.
Psychoanalysis:
Tracing the woven speech
Tracing the woven speech
Psychoanalysis works through the patient's free association since unconsciousness is structured in metaphors and metonymies, and free association traces them backwards. By following the weave of a speech's cloth, like the weft and warp, the analyst can trace the source of the symptoms.
Therefore, Maman's graphic motif is developed using two factors: the woven thread, which is simplified as a grid system, and the analysis, which is visualised as a tracing back curvy line.
Exploring the unconsciousness
the illustrations for Maman link psychoanalysis sessions to mystery explorations, which give an outcome that strongly resembles mystery and detective comics. At the end, and by following both memories and words of analysis, the session gets to draw the structure of unconsciousness.
