Sistematización de la experiencia “la noción de patrimonio desde la construcción de memoria: una mirada desde el graffiti”

Abstract

This final internship report and degree project examines the teaching of cultural heritage through graffiti. Together with my colleague, we conducted research on the possibility of considering graffiti as cultural heritage, based on a case study of Diego Becerra's work, a young Colombian graffiti artist killed by the National Police of Colombia. This tragic background allowed us to contextualize and raise awareness among sixth-grade students about the importance of heritage and historical memory. Through various pedagogical activities, we promoted critical reflection and appreciation of graffiti as a legitimate form of cultural expression and collective memory. As a final outcome of this educational process, the students participated in creating a mural at their school, integrating the lessons learned and contributing to the dialogue on urban art and its heritage value.
