Abstract

This article aims to follow the intersubjectivity in Merleau-Ponty as experience of existence set in corporeity, in vision and body, the spread on the other and the world. Thus showing through his point of view the vision and the body as a specific way of thought. Therefore, to reflect upon Merleau-Ponty, the vision as something that offers more than just colors and also as something that is not limited to the function of the eye to see; corporeity as animation of the pictorial space; presentation of the ambiguous condition of oneself in the world.
