ALETHEIA: The hidden power of imagination

Often reduced to its ability to create mental images, the imagination remains an underestimated subject, although it plays a crucial role in our ability to create. By harnessing its ability to mentally visualise what doesn't yet exist, it projects us into the future, thus proving a powerful tool for creation. Yet, despite its undeniable importance, our understanding of the imagination remains limited. According to Jean-Paul Sartre, we know little about it, despite its power to influence our perception of the world. We therefore need to explore this little-understood ability in depth in order to measure its impact on our experience of reality.

“L’acte d’imagination que nous venons de voir, est un acte magique. C’est une incantation destiné à faire apparaître l’objet auquel on pense, […] Il y a dans cet acte toujours quelque chose d’impérieux et d’enfantin […].”
