Description
Summary:The work that we present is the result of the workshop “Strategies, activities and resources for the didactics of the drawing, the image and the plastic arts” that is part of the subject: Learning and teaching in the specialty of drawing, image and plastic arts, belonging to the Official Master’s Degree in Compulsory Secondary Education and Baccalaureate, Vocational Training and Language Teaching of the University of Cádiz. Course 2018-2019. The study was carried out in the Faculty of Education Sciences of the University of Cádiz, involving eighteen students aged between 23 and 31 years with different backgrounds: Fine Arts, Architecture, Communication, Design... Our goal has been to develop creativity through emotions by performing different exercises of artistic drawing and body movement achieving a magnificent work environment: Hands in movement that contact a support creating a group composition, drawings that interpret texts by authors such as Chillida, plastic expression with exquisite corpse play, body movement creating symmetrical drawings without looking, creating human sculptures to the rhythm of music... We use different strategies to help shape emotions; the silence, the recorded music, the live musical performance. All this makes it possible for feelings and emotions to come to light. Like the sculptor Giacometti, we have been able to show what is below the subject. Methodology based on the study of multidisciplinary creative processes and their praxis, digitizing context and actions so that they are not ephemeral. We use a self-made questionnaire about the six basic emotions and the TMMS-24(Fdez. Berrocal, Extremera y Ramos, 2004) for the collection and analysis of data.
