Isolation image

Abstract

Through a sensitive perspective, this article seeks to delve into the affectation caused by the image -not only cinematographic but all the visual  representation- in the viewer. The author explores the act of contemplating an artwork and how it can capture the interior of the person portrayed and thus awaken it. It also analyzes cinema as a dream that isolates and invites submersion, making real the ideal of art as a source of transformation and catharsis for life.
