Imagens, criações artísticas e produção estética de jovens nos cotidianos de uma escola pública

Abstract

The everyday life of public schools is made up of an inapprehensible diversity of ways of existence, of a fertile collective encounter that shows the coexistence of several schools within the same school - the school of the students, teachers, administrators, parents, etc. In these space-time schools inhabits different bodies that engender practices, marked by uses and tactics of resistance to the hegemonic political forces, appropriating and subverting the strategies of determination of everyday life, of the practices that take place there and of the curricula. In this paper, we present the results of a doctoral research in which we carried out the production of an audio-visual cartography with students involved in artistic creation workshops (of poems, songs, films, canvases, albums) in a public school in Bahia. Using images-sounds-texts (made available through the creation of a website) of these experiences, in the research workshops the students were invited to see-hear-think and create videos with the memories-fragments of their experiences of artistic-aesthetic creation throughout high school, resulting in the production of eleven videos presented in the Poetry Gathering (the research) of the Art Projects. These videos and the conversations triggered in the creation workshops and in the Poetry Gathering in which they were presented, highlight how the artistic creation workshops and the Poetry Gathering exhibitions-festivals have affected the students' lives and influenced the formation of their bodies, the "creation of themselves" and of the school as "works of art". They could exhibit how these aesthetic productions affected the imaginary, the production of other images of public school, and contributed in the production of singularities observed in the realization-creation of the school's practices and everyday life as well as the curricula practiced-thought in them, providing space-time of celebration, joy, pleasure and collective aesthetic fruition that flowed inside and outside the school-city.
