Visual activity and relatedness: A portrait of ways the eye, empathy and ethics conjoin.
Sowbel, S. B.

Visual activity and relatedness: A portrait of ways the eye, empathy and ethics conjoin. - 313 p.

Adviser: Roni Natov.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--Union Institute and University, 2008.

Sowbel's exploratory hypothesis is that empathy, which is fundamental to relatedness and key to the development of ethical understanding and ethical action, has vital roots in visual activity. Through a heuristic, discursive, arts-informed inquiry, the question: "Is there a link between visual activity (defined as the ongoing making of internal and external conceptualizations) and ethical conduct?" is examined for significance in today's climate of reduced support for the arts. Socio-political events show that empathy across difference is critical to negotiations at the local, national and international level. This interdisciplinary study looks at links among the eye, empathy and ethics through several bodies of creative work and literature on neurons, kin recognition, pattern identification, attachment theory, empathy, perspective-taking, prosocial behavior, metaphor, the history of portraiture and the cultural stories about eyes. Creative work, included in the document, locates visual activity across theory and practice. A personal reflexive voice brings the difference in disciplinary dialects into relation across methodologies. The 40+ monoprints, 50-page manuscript of poetry: Mixing Liberties, five large scale portraits, and documentation of the work of five fictive artists displayed as an installation are used as both method and data to ground conclusions regarding the ubiquity of visual activity and its link to human processes related to prosocial behavior. This study has implications for the research, policies and practices of developmental and social psychologists, expressive arts therapists, arts-based researchers, educators and legislators.
