Summary
interaction between object and observer in scientific undertakings is regarded as objective, functional and instrumental; whereas in artistic projects it is usually seen as subjective, imaginatively invested and autonomous. Yet the fact that any research process, be it in science for “utilitarian” purposes, or in the humanities for their “intrinsic worth”, involves investigation from a theoretical viewpoint—and that “theory” implies producing a mental view of an object/event in a subjective albeit comprehensive way—elicits reflections upon phenomenological correspondences between both\\nareas. this paper explores such links, suggesting an alliance between art and science within an ecophilosophical view of nature/Culture that challenges the still prevalent mechanical paradigm.
