Abstract

TAKE THE WORD RESEARCH-CREATION PROJECT This is a story, a journey, a journey into the past that investigates the transformation of the place in which I grew up; but it is that place that is built from memories, experiences and experiences; own and those of the group of older adults. In my case, since my family is based in it and where I live a large part of my childhood and adolescence and on the other, from the migration and family enjoyment of childhood and youth lived by the elderly. There, in this journey, the metamorphosis is activated, the transition from the rural to the urban where the memories; the experiences, as knowledge given in life, recognize in the Living Word the cultural values of the places we inhabit. Older adults lived the progressive change of Fontibón; In them live the memories of a rural place that was industrialized and that grew demographically. This is, therefore, a moment in which to take the word is to understand and take advantage of; in a diachronic way, the living memory that is found in my memories and in the stories of the elderly allows to evoke and return to life -between word and creation- a place that time snatched away. Then, collecting some natural elements present in the spaces we inhabit, the elderly and I, from life, evoke images that represent the very place in which the experiences were given. Thus, my plastic proposal starts from the notion of montage worked by Aby Warburg to present seven pieces that make up the Taking of Word; from the individual and metaphorical content of each piece, relationships of meaning are generated by arranging them in space by activating their energetic charges, by means of what Aby Warburg calls Pathosformel.
