Shame remains at the core of much psychological distress and can
eventuate as physical symptoms, yet experiential approaches to
healing shame are sparse. Links between shame and art making have
been felt, intuited, and examined, but have not been sufficiently
documented by depth psychologists. Shame and the Making of Art
addresses this lacuna by surveying depth psychological conceptions
of shame, art, and the role of creativity in healing, contemporary
and historical shame ideologies, as well as recent psychobiological
studies on shame. Drawing on research conducted with participants
in three different countries, the book includes candid discussions
of shame experiences. These experiences are accompanied by Cluff's
heuristic inquiry into shame with an interpretative
phenomenological analysis that focuses on how participants
negotiate the relationship between shame and the making of art.
Cluff's movement through archetypal dimensions, especially
Dionysian, is developed and discussed throughout the book. The
results of the research are further explicated in terms of
comparative studies, wherein the psychological processes and
impacts observed by other researchers and effects on self-conscious
maladaptive emotions are described. Shame and the Making of Art
should be essential reading for academics, researchers, and
postgraduate students engaged in the study of psychology and the
arts. It will be of particular interest to psychologists, Jungian
psychotherapists, psychiatrists, social workers, creativity
researchers, and anyone interested in understanding the dynamics of
this shame and self-expression.
