Lecture

Beaty Popescu
Transmutation: Drawing the Up-Wellings of the Unconscious Toward the Shores of Consciousness
Sun. Apr. 7
1-3pm

In this lecture I will discuss how through using what I call ‘Visual Active Imagination’ it is possible to give form and thus greater consciousness to unconscious material that graces or assails us at the very edge of our awareness. I will clarify how the non-verbal language of visual creativity can transport that which is still more or less of the unconscious, toward the light of consciousness. This visual transmutation is an expressive process, which pre-figures linear language. The above topic is both very close to my heart and deeply studied, as my first love and career in life has been as an artist and professor of visual art, and now my second passion and life’s path is working with psyche and practicing as a depth psychologist.

Beaty Popescu, who is a Jungian psychoanalyst, and practicing artist, studied visual art, gaining her Bachelor of Fine Art from York University in 1981, her Master of Fine Art from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design University in 1985 and her Bachelor of Education with a visual art specialty from the University of Toronto in 1988. She went on to teach drawing, 3 dimensional design and sculpture at Memorial University of Newfoundland. Along side her University teaching, Beaty had an extensive national and smaller international exhibition career.

Parallel to Popescu’s commitment and calling to be a visual artist, she was deeply interested in the psychoanalytical understanding of the human psyche. She was no stranger to psychoanalysis having grown up with a beloved grandmother who was a practicing Freudian psychoanalyst, and having herself undergone both Freudian and Jungian analysis. Then in 1998, while on sabbatical, Beaty partook in the Jungian summer intensive course offered by the C.G. Jung Institute in Zurich, Switzerland. This experience clarified for her that she was deeply called to become a Jungian Psychoanalyst. By 2000 Popescu was able to fully let go of her tenure track university teaching career and deepen into a 5 year Jungian psychoanalytical study and training in Zurich, Switzerland.

Beaty has been practicing as a Jungian psychoanalyst since 2004, first in Ottawa, Ontario and now in Halifax, Nova Scotia. She continues to have a vibrant visual art practice, in which she gives form to uprisings from the realms of the unconscious
