The present research explores the relationship between the environment and the production of meaning, in the experience of the dark, using as theoretical basis lines of philosophical thought, such as the phenomenology of Merleau-Ponty, the aesthetic experience of Dewey, the hegemony of vision of Pallasmaa, the theory of silence of Orlandi, among others. The study aims to understand if and how the immersive experience with the deprivation of one of the senses affects the individual s processes of signification. From the 1980s to the present day, cognitive functions have gone from being considered purely intellectual mechanisms to welcoming an approach that integrates corporeality and the environment in which the individual is inserted. In this study, I propose that the physical environment serves as a mental context for the meaning processes of the individuals in it, and that the immersive experience functions as an aesthetic experience, regarding its effects on the production of meaning. I also consider that, in the processes of signification, the word and the image act in the same way, domesticating the meaning. Based on Eni Orlandi s study on silence, I propose the approach of the dark as a space of subjectivity, the incompleteness necessary for the work of the imagination in the production of meaning (Orlandi, 1997).
