pedagogia multi-artes
investigação permanente
Como podem ser cruzadas e combinadas várias formas de arte, estabelecendo influências mútuas para desenvolver experiências criativas em contextos multiculturais?
​ O projeto tem sido uma superfÃcie onde a multiplicidade cultural é impressa, enriquecida e expandida
pela colaboração entre artistas/arte educadores de várias geografias.
​ Nós focar em explorando situações estéticas e pedagógicas decorrentes da reunião.
A partir de abordagens try-out, os artistas criam plataformas estruturantes de autoexpressão, comunicação estética
mas principalmente a busca para lugares imateriais onde se pode pertencer.
Como resultado da primeira formação do grupo, desenvolvemos oficinas cruzando teatro,
música, diálogo reflexivo e artes visuais realizado na Aldeia Infantil SOS (Helsinki - FI),
com um grupo de adolescentes com refugiados anteriores ou atuais status.
Memory as Medium stemmed from my arts-based doctoral research project. Georgie and Arlene are participants amongst the 10 other artists who took part in the study. The project deals with memory stories, nonlinear views of time and its politics/sociality, and is oriented towards understanding how a nonlinear idea of time can affect our ways of looking into personal memories, influence creative work, as well being used as a frame for understanding today’s racialized capitalist economy. Memory as Medium is a new initiative. Each group member brings along different notions of collaborative work, echoing the different educational and professional environments we’ve been through.
Memory is not just something that is stored and subsequently recollected. We explore memory as a process moving across the environment, instead of seeing it as a ‘thing’, placed within an individual person or object. Our frames of reference for memory deviate from ‘self-serving’, ‘self-reflection’ or ‘auto-analysis’ purposes, being rather interested in memory in relation to multiplicity from within struggling environments/groups. We are motivated to explore the entanglements between our different histories, racial categories, privileges, familiar environments to navigate into memory as a field of unknown possibilities. We join our diverse disciplinary expertise seeking for different understandings about how to explore remembrance, not as totems for singularized identities, but rather as processes that enhance connection and interdependence with communities and all living forms.
