Nise: The Heart of Madness Page #5

Who's there?

Emygdio,

I want to ask you a favor.

Can you hold this brush for me?

Thank you.

Now I will ask you

to take some paint

from here to here.

It's looking good.

Put some white over here.

Mix the white with blue.

The green looks nice.

That mountain looks great.

Doctor, I won't teach

anyone how to work.

Get her something

to do.

All right, Carlinhos.

Marta, come here, please.

Stay with Raphael.

Do you only draw dashes?

Pay attention to your

drawing, Raphael.

Draw something.

Draw a house

or a donkey.

Don't interfere, Marta.

He will draw whatever he wants

if he wants to.

What do I do?

You can talk to him

if he asks something.

Raphael is drawing

a donkey.

I think Raphael

just needed a muse.

Marta.

From now on I want you

exclusively with him.

This piece is by Carlos.

Both of these.

They aren't signed.

We need to write their names,

date it and put their number.

That is very important.

- Good morning, Pedro.

- Good morning.

Prof. Carl Gustav Jung,

Master,

in the Pedro II Psychiatric

Center in Rio de Janeiro,

there is a studio

where patients

draw and paint

in complete freedom.

No suggestions are given.

No models are proposed.

With my most

respectful regards

I'm sending you some

pictures of paintings

that look like mandalas

or similar forms.

They were spontaneously

painted by the schizophrenics.

Thus, primal images

arise from their paintings

presenting an empirical and convincing

demonstration of analytical psychology.

There is no cultural influence

whatsoever.

I can't even begin to

explain, Master,

how much your books have

helped my work as a psychiatrist

and they personally

helped me a lot as well.

With admiration,

Nise da Silveira.

The fat one will swallow

the n*gger, right Lima?

The fat one will swallow

the n*gger, right Lima?

You are a young doctor,

you should be more open minded.

He's here just because

he helps with the laundry.

He's here just because

he helps with the laundry.

The chronic and incurable should

be transferred to Jacarepagua hospital.

I want you to look at this

and tell me if this is the

work of someone incurable.

Fernando's work

intrigues me, Almir.

Fernando's work

intrigues me, Almir.

Look at this room he painted

with all the objects out of place,

completely chaotic.

Then he paints

an empty room

where he builds the

the structure of the house.

The walls, floor...

Little by little, he adds objects,

The walls, floor...

Little by little, he adds objects,

books, an aquarium...

And then, finally, he paints

all the objects together

And then, finally, he paints

all the objects together

in an organized structure.

I think he is finding his place.
