Summary : This study traces the design, enactment and evolution of two therapeutic groups for adolescents, based on the general theme of travel and discovery, through artistic mediation, in a group organized by a nurse and a participating artist, which takes place at an art school. After reviewing the different proposed designs generally offered to treatment groups, the authors propose their concept of a group where everything is a pretext and only temporary. In essence, poetry, both as a project, whether within the framework or mediation used and the proposed argument. What is crucial is the collective creation of a project rather than the final production, a work that is an evolutionary process, not a fixed product, which in its existence would be an out dated phenomenon and nothing more, a moment of shared history. They illustrate this concept through the operation of the reported experiments, analyzing them based on the psychosemiotic concepts of Pierce and Balat, and show a transformation of the ownership and group project by young people in care, as well as a subversion of the framework, that is the same therapeutic mechanism, which goes against common beliefs and supports the need of respect for a therapeutic framework. |
