The Thinking Hand 19
The Thinking Hand analyzes the essence of the hand and its crucial role in the evolution of human dexterity, intelligence, and conceptual abilities. The hand is not merely a faithful and passive executor of the brain's intentions; rather, it possesses its own intentionality and skills. Its author, Juhani Pallasmaa, emphasizes the relatively autonomous and unconscious processes of thought and action in writing, craftsmanship, or the production of art and architecture. Organized into eight chapters, this study explores the silent understanding that lies hidden in the existential part of the human condition and its specific ways of being and experiencing. Ultimately, its aim is to help shake the foundations of the hegemonic conceptual, intellectual, and verbal knowledge paradigm in the architectural sphere, in favor of another form of knowledge: the tacit and non-conceptual knowledge of our bodily processes. |
