Tese (Doutorado em Psicologia) - Centro de Ciências Humanas, Letras e Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2024.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/58473This intervention research develops from the researcher's immersion as a worker in the Psychosocial Care Network (RAPS) of Natal -RN bringing to analysis productions carried out with the Center for Coexistence and Culture (CECCO), which points out clues for the creation of openings on RAPS towards the city. We affirm that psychosocial care, to sustain an anti-asylum becoming, needs to take place in this in-between, a non-specific place that is woven in the relationship with the outside in the overflow of previously delimited fields. Investing in the knowledge and art of the ‘coexisters’, people who frequent the CECCO, we bring them as intercessors in this investigation into how art interrogates psychosocial attention, enhancing the processes of deinstitutionalization of madness. We narrate the research through three stages as markers of its development process: the first corresponds to the insertion of the worker-researcher in the field, as a psychologist and manager of CECCO; in the second, going through the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, we narrate how CECCO reinvented itself in the face of the need for social distancing; and in the third period, we dedicated ourselves to organize the CECCO Collection and an exhibition/cultural show occupay that emerge as a method of research and actuacion in the field of art and mental sanity. By outlining artistic gestures in the clinic and mapping possible outside clinics, we activate affective memories and work narratives, mapping experiences and concepts in the field of art, philosophy and clinic that help to occupy these interstitial spaces between art- clinical and political. We seek to give visibility to the struggle for territories of life and art in RAPS, investing in the capacity of everyone, especially the so-called “crazy ones”, to produce art and, mainly, to create paths that can widen the narrowness and reductionism that the Mental health sometimes reproduces when dealing with suffering, closing meanings towards the disease, instead of offering openings in the affirmation of life and singularity in different modes of existence and subjectivation We discovered in this process that in the way CECCO operates there lies another possible clinic, a clinic of the interstice, wich, by operating in the gaps between arte, clinic and politics, air out the networks of psychosocial care, and, bypassing the hard lines of the rigidized institucions, it finds a way to go through, even in the precarious scenarios that we face in SUS, even in times of dismantling of the Psychiatric Reform.Acesso AbertoDesinstitucionalizaçãoSaúde mentalArteClínicaAtenção psicossocialdoctoralThesisCNPQ::CIENCIAS HUMANAS::PSICOLOGIA
