This work deals with individuation and perception from two contemporary philosophies. Phenomenological foundations of perception (Merleau-Ponty) and the connections between perception and individuation (Gilbert Simondon). These two theoretical compositions may encourage reflections on researches into environmental perception. The primordial perception, the importance of corporeity as the rediscovery of a living world and the aesthetic experience that may restore spaces of creation in the arts are Merleau-Ponty's categories which allow a re-evaluation of the human-environment relationship. The "dialog" between these creation experiences (Merleau-Ponty) and the processes of individuation of/with perception (Simondon) may suggest new approaches to studies in environmental perception, inspire new possibilities in environmental education.
