Abstract
The search for an ontology of space in Gaston Bachelard’s works and the intercession of phenomenology and imaginary-driven neurobiology comprise the approach herein utilized. We present the fundamental role of space as a phenomenon within consciousness and the constitution of a being. Landscapes are sensible dimensions, affective-aesthetic, emotional and symbolical of life, generating primordial images. Our objective is to contextualize the roots of such phenomenology and present its potential as a study of consciousness, alongside current neurobiological interpretations by António Damásio, referent to cultural and affective consciousness.
