 Master Class
'Object-Relating and Relating to Objects'
19 & 20 April 2013
Brunel University, West London

A two day Master Class at Brunel University for clinical therapists, social science researchers and academics will consider how objects are used by people in everyday life, emphasising their real and symbolic value in negotiating change, loss and identity.  Psychoanalysis has used the word 'object' to describe the internal representations of important people and yet objects, including our bodies, are tangible and touchable.  International, national and London based academics and therapists will present papers and workshops which will discuss the links between conscious objects and their unconscious value in self-identity, relationships and society. This series is a collaboration between the Research Centre for Human Geography and the 'Psychoanalytic Thinking in Occupational Therapy' network.

Please see programme below for further details, and further details are available from [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> . The registration fee is £30 for one day, or £50 for both days.
