La conciencia ampliada del arte en la búsqueda de tácticas de desaprendizaje vibrar al unísono: cuatro experiencias posibles

Abstract

Unlearning institutional and particularly implanted ways of thinking allows for new dialogues and identifications to build a common feeling that enables human beings to liberate their thoughts, feelings, and sensations. Art, in addition to contributing to this new, free, and genuine communication, invites introspection. Several factors intervene in the development of symbolic expression and the repetition of stereotypes in young people with cognitive disabilities, which are analyzed in this research-creation project. Exercises from the drawing-on-the-right-side-of-the-brain method demonstrate that they facilitate the change of representations, as do other practices related to this hemisphere, called expanded states of consciousness, which reveal improved sensorimotor-rational synchronicity. Stimulating the senses can generate neuron renewal, leading to brain neuroplasticity, which provides advances in the cognitive, affective, and communicative dimensions of the human being. Stimulating through art can be a supportive path for people with special educational needs. More than creating tension between concepts from various disciplines, the intention of this search for pedagogical tactics is to enter into dialogue with other ways of seeing the world, and to make the way we inhabit it more fluid.
