Abstract

With the windowpanes of the installation Roaring Winds we present our transdisciplinary approach to the analysis of the psychodynamic concept of projection as situated affective regulation (Habets et al 2024). Working on the crossroads of ecological psychology, visual arts, philosophy we draw on textual analysis of self-narrations in historic sources, phenomenological interviews, and the making and registration of art installations, to make salient and tangible the kinds of projective skills people have developed in relation to their living environment.

Author Biographies

  • David Habets, Amsterdam University Medical Center

    David Habets practice revolves around making place-based art installations and staging material performances. He operates on the crossroads of visual arts, landscape architecture and humanities. Over the last fifteen years Habets has been making a series of large-scale site-specific artworks as a core-member of RAAAF (Still Life, Deltawork //, HiddenWorlds, Intensive Care a.o.). Habets’ work is concerned with mental and physical pollution of our living environment through staging fragile, temporary art installations that slowly degrade, dissolve, or wash away over time. He has founded several art/science collectives to explore wide ranging topics from lichen (WAAE) to the zoo (ZOOOF), to resource depletion (LiCo), working closely with architects, lichenologists, anthropologists, and political scientists. His work has honored him with invitations to the HKW in Berlin and Art/Science program at the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences (KNAW), a fellowship at van Eyck Academy and as PhD candidate in explorative architecture and philosophy at the AMC department of psychiatry with the project landscapes of stress.
