EDITORIAL
By Pr Laurent SCHMITT, President of SIPE-AT
The revival of SIPE-AT is underway. Participate!
Many art therapists support their patients in this period of intranquility. They encourage their creativity, their imagination and through the relationship thus created help them. It opens a huge therapeutic area with discoveries and original methods of care or self-expression. The Sipe-at is open to these new approaches and wants to be a form of amplification at the international level.
Join us! Express yourself. Tell us about your activity and your original and innovative practices.
1959, the year the SIPE was founded, almost 65 years old. Originally it was the singular art, the art of the “mad”, the art brut. Then came the psychopathology of expression. A modality of creativity influenced by psychic disorders. The book of our honorary president Guy Roux bears witnesses this. You see the illustration below.Then came the notion of mediated therapy with, in relation, the expression of a creative imaginary world. It is nowadays amplified by video expressions or on social networks.
All this is bubbling, it’s excellent. Participate in it with SIPE-AT.
Le Plancher de Jeannot enters the Museum of Art and History of the Hospital Saint-Anne (Paris)
Le plancher de Jeannot bears the name of its author, Jean Crampilh-Broucaret (1939-1972), said « Janot » or « Jeannot », born in Moncaup (Pyrénées-Atlantiques). The floor is accidentally discovered on the occasion of the sale of the farm by his older sister Simone (1925-2014). It was dismantled and acquired by Guy Roux en 1994, neuropsychiatrist in Pau. When his mother dies, in 1971, refusing to allow her to be buried in the village cemetery, the family obtains permission, that she be buried in the house. It was probably in the weeks that followed that Crampilh undertook to engrave the floor of his room near the maternal tomb.

Enchanted family drawing by a 14-year-old boy, sent to the psychology clinic by his school due to his aggressive behavior. The first figure is a purple octopus (his brother). Next: a carnivorous plant (his father), followed by himself as “Swamp Man”. The last figure is his mother, the scarecrow (Vass, 2012)
Left : The subject scribbled over the human figure drawing so hard and so carefully that the figure is barely visible. The scribbling was used purposefully, unlike in the drawing on the right. The subject (male, 26) discharges his tension in an undirected manner. The interpratations of this reaction are low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence in social situations, denial as a defence mechanism, feelings of inadequacy or impulsivity.
“Life with major depression” Photo Exhibition – Budapest Art Brut Gallery
The Deep Air Project was created in 2020 to share information about mental health and mood disorders on social media in a scientific yet accessible way. The project focuses on raising awareness and promoting mental health, but also combats the stigma surrounding people with mental illness. Their presence, online or offline, creates a supportive community where no one is alone with their problems. Their following continues to grow, with over 92,000 followers on Instagram.
In August 2021, they launched a competition entitled “Show what’s inside you”. The exhibition of the images received was hosted by the Budapest Art Brut Gallery in March 2022.
With the help of the pictures they submit, people can show the everyday life and difficulties of people with major depression, thus helping to create a more understanding and supportive social environment. The exhibition also addressed those affected, showing that they are not alone, that many others are struggling with similar problems. Experiencing this helps everyone to feel less isolated.
