DIALECTICS AS A METHOD IN THE CREATIVE PROCESS

Abstract

This work delves into the phenomenon of re-presentation of reality, in which memories, experience, objects, sensible elements and evocations provide resources for sensitized reason that, according to the dialectical method, unifies complementary terms overcoming them to reveal the essence differently, it is not new, the given forms intervene and an alternative configuration is attributed to them which in turn generates a different concept. Both art and design are not mimetic nor subject to the dominion of Nature, they are acts based on the sensible revelation of the spirit that express a truth of form in the permanent struggle to make sense of it. Creating in a dialectical way is distinguished from other ways because there is an awareness of content and form, and both must be reconciled. It is not a progression that moves from thesis to antithesis and the consequent synthesis. It is about the definition of categories.
