Abstract

This research presents an intersection between the field of InformationScience and Semiotics, through a correlation between information representation and plastic semiotics, since both areas present concerns in relation to language and representation. The objective of this research, of qualitative approach, exploratory character and applied nature, is to analyze the theoretical foundations of plastic semiotics and discuss the possibility of establishing relations between information representation and these semiotic foundations in order to contribute to the theoretical and epistemological bases of Information Organization. Through bibliographic research procedures, in the Google Scholar, Periódicos Capes, Dialnet and BRAPCIdatabases, as well as consultations in specialized books on the theme, the results are elaborated using the content analysis method. As results, an analysis of comics is presented, as a practical and applied example of how such theory can contribute to the representation of visual and/or syncretic objects. It is concluded that plastic semiotics has much to contribute to the field of Information Science, especially in the thematic representation for document interpretation, by analyzing the visual aspects identifying signs and meanings present in the works, making it possible to direct the technical reading, identification and description of the content, important steps in indexing.
