Caramore: Sento Dunque Penso Explores Embodied Perception

The Italian cultural journal doppiozero published an essay titled "Caramore: sento dunque penso" on August 14, 2026, authored by Mauro Portello and Anita Romanello. The piece reflects on the relationship between bodily sensation and thought, arguing that understanding human perception is essential to life. The authors emphasize the interconnection between the inner self and the external world, suggesting that each influences the other. They reference a passage from Brazilian writer Clarice Lispector, whom they consider a fundamental author for reflecting on perception. In the quoted text, Lispector describes losing a metaphorical 'third leg' that had made her a stable tripod but also hindered walking. She explains that with only two legs she can now walk, yet she misses the useless absence of that third leg, which frightened her because it was that leg that made her who she was. The essay appears to be part of a series or a specific publication, possibly related to an artist or project named Caramore. The title suggests a philosophical inquiry into the primacy of feeling in thought, aligning with contemporary discussions in art and phenomenology.
