Summary

The finale will centre on a live performance of ‘Pas Moi, Not I’ by Samuel Beckett in both French and English by the actor Clara Simpson. The presentation that follows reprises a successful workshop at the recent IPA congress in Cartagena in 2023. 

From Freud’s thinking on the sublimation of libido and his later theorisation of the Life and Death Drives, to Klein’s work on reparation and the recovery of the good object and Winnicott’s ideas of creative living, psychoanalysis has always been interested in creativity. 
 

In the fourth Maudsley summer series on arts and psychoanalysis, we continue to explore this theme of creativity between internal and external worlds in dialogue with artists from a range of different perspectives: from the natural to the built world and ceramics to literature and theatre.
