Abstract

MARXEN, Eva  and  GONZALEZ GUTIERREZ, Luis Felipe. The Scope of Artistic and Poetic Dispositifs in Health and Mental Health Research. Enfermería (Montevideo) [online]. 2022, vol.11, n.2, e2939.  Epub Dec 01, 2022. ISSN 1688-8375.  https://doi.org/10.22235/ech.v11i2.2939.

Introduction:

A common theme that has characterized the evolution of qualitative methodologies in recent decades is a “transdisciplinary turn” in the form of the incorporation of techniques derived from the arts.

Objective:

To carry out a critical analysis of this trend in the field of health and mental health, through the description and explanation of the scope of two dispositifs, the artistic and the poetic.

Method:

The work is developed from duo-ethnography, understood as a dialogic process that generates new meanings to social phenomena and epistemological constructs.

Results:

The described dispositifs have a significant impact on the relationship of artistic expression with the foundations of qualitative research.

Conclusions:

The arts have pushed qualitative research to move beyond logocentrism in representational concerns. As a consequence, the use of art is no longer thought of as a tool, but as an experience of construction of subjectivity that allows an authentic experience of construction of reality with the active and critical involvement of the researcher in their projects.

Keywords : qualitative research; art; health; mental health; duo-ethnography.
