This article is about the experience of seeing in psychoanalysis. It is a realm of sensation that has been minimized since Freud privileged hearing and the word over the image. I discuss Diana Fuss' study of the architecture of the first psychoanalytic office and Debra Roth's argument for restoring the value of the surface to have a flow between exterior and interior. I present the work of the philosopher, Merleau-Ponty, emphasizing seeing preceding language and the importance of the image for the psychoanalyst. Paying attention to what is seen in dreams, photography, and the psychoanalytic office may bring the analyst into a more vulnerable and fully realized mutual participation with the patient.
