<\/strong><\/p>\n

Metamodernism comes to the art-therapeutic space – this is a time of creative doubts, refinements of consciousness constantly leading to changes, one’s own reality divided into plurality or polyfurcation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This process is indicated by evolutionary trends and constant growth, the flow of information. Thus, according to analytics, information on Earth is updated every 72 days, which means that new skills of understanding the client by an art psychologist will become a necessary condition for the qualitative transition of psychological assistance by means of creatively projecting oneself into reality and reality into oneself.<\/p>\n

In art therapy intervention, an organized illusion is created on a piece of paper or in any other creative field, which will greatly facilitate the process of understanding these phenomena and accepting by the client the manifestation of his own polyfurcation (multiple personality in choices).<\/p>\n

Realizing the new reality of unrestrained information with multiple vector manifestations, the rules of life-creation are produced by practice, where there are no more common truths, where dogmas end and epochal postulates disappear, new forms of internal communications are requested. The art therapeutic boom of all this is a weighty proof, where in the logic of metamodernism the ideas \u201cfor everyone\u201d, the ideas of the universality of being are rejected, forcing in the art therapeutic process to approach one\u2019s own responsible choice of internal supports for productive activity and comfort.<\/p>\n

This period of evolutionary fluctuations, where it is difficult to identify the goal and means, the beginning and the end, good and evil, acquires great significance for the concept of personality polyfurcation. N.N. Moiseev pointed out that the adaptation mechanisms that ensure the stability of a developing system in specific environmental conditions are special bifurcation mechanisms (bifurcation – branching or bifurcation). But rather, it would be more correct to designate this as a polyfurcation, where many options for changes are manifested, and not two fundamental ones.<\/p>\n

Thus, this process allows us to identify the mechanisms of polyfurcation of the personality of an art therapy client.<\/p>\n

Polyfurcation mechanisms provide:<\/strong><\/p>\n

– the tendency to accept unpredictable changes in the developing system;<\/strong><\/p>\n

– recognition of the possibility of multivariate actions in the conditions of transformations of environmental content;<\/strong><\/p>\n

– formation of transcendental forms of accepting the uncertainty of the future of the life-action system.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It should be understood that the inner world of a person will be an even more complex system, where choices and decisions will be made with great difficulty and doubts, since they will be based on their own opinion, and not on external authorities. The polyfurcation of the client or the individual plurality of truths in the process of finding solutions and choices, reconsiders the view of history, rejecting its linearity, the idea of \u200b\u200bcompleteness and the correctness of the particular. Taking rather the universalism of reality as the basis of action.<\/p>\n

The question arises. What should a psychologist do, who defines help as life-creation, in the process of free expression of creative self-expression.<\/p>\n

I will try to formulate a few theses that can serve as guidelines for more effective art therapy in modern realities. Not in any way, not claiming the truth of the opinion, only creating a dialogic space for reflection.<\/p>\n

So, how to build an art therapy process with a polyfurcation client in the era of metamodernism:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Provide an opportunity for the client to accept his diversity with the designation of the plurality of variations of understanding and recognition through the art product of its integrity and diversity.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

     <\/p>\n

      \n
    1. To form conditions for the expansion of categorical imperatives, what is good, what is bad, is far from unambiguous, and there are no qualitative measures of understanding. Art therapy can provide an understanding of exchange acceptance, from what is bad to separating the good, to being well aware of the dangers or “blind spots”<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

       <\/p>\n

        \n
      1. With the help of an art product, to enable the client to safely accept radical openness to himself, thereby providing a self-organizing system with a sufficiently high level of awareness and inner freedom.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

         <\/p>\n

          \n
        1. To provide, with the help of free self-manifestation, a creative exit to a new qualitative transcendent level of opportunities for spiritual growth in the forms of one’s own psycho-physiological balance.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

           <\/p>\n

            \n
          1. Designate or symbolically objectify the challenge to oneself or wishing to manifest it in the systemic categories of creativity, which will provide true conditionality in the form of a creative response to internal tension.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

             <\/p>\n

            These reflections are only the beginning of an excursion into the study of a new type of client of an art psychologist and require additional facts and opinions to form a systemic picture of effective assistance, the ambiguity of which requires empirical confirmation.<\/p>\n
