David Binns Memorial Lecture delivered by Peter Kline

Thursday, 6 November, 6:00 pm7:00 pm AEST

Peter Kline will be presenting “Infinite Splendours: Psychoanalysis and the Sublime” as the 2025 David Binns Memorial Lecture.

Peter’s talk will trace the connections between art, spirituality and the insights of psychoanalysis, with a special focus on the Australian novel Infinite Splendours, written by Sophie Laguna, which tells a story of childhood trauma and visual art. Using Jean Laplanche’s psychoanalytic theory, Peter will explore how art comes from and transformatively restages the fundamental enigma that makes us human beings, our relation to disturbing otherness.
