For Claude Lévi-Strauss, ritual would represent "a bastardization of conscious thought to the servitudes of life (...) what it seeks to overcome is not the resistance of the world to man but the resistance of man to thought".

The setting up of a ritualised process of introspection and interiorisation is achieved through the repetition of elementary gestures, the mind and the body are liberated in isolation and erasure close to a state of self-hypnosis. Drawing as a ritual opens up to an inner dialogue that summons up visions and questions relating to the image, resurgence, loss, the repressed, the invisible and the becoming, generating intermedia projects.
