Estrategias resilientes de niños y niñas con relatos problemáticos a través de una intervención mediada por un contexto artístico

Abstract

The purpose of this research was framed in generating interventive processes with children living in the city of Bogotá, with problematic stories after experiencing difficult or hostile situations, where the objective was to understand the resilient strategies that they could develop from interventions mediated by an artistic context. The whole idea was to generate understandings about the painful or difficult situations experienced, through artistic constructions and alternate stories that emerged from each artistic workshop and help to resignify the experienced situation, opening the chance to co-construct hostile experiences. The present research was framed in the epistemological bases of the systemic theory, complexity and second order cybernetics; this last one being the methodology used in the investigative-intervention process. As part of this process, plastic materials were used as artistic tools that together with conversational scenarios, allowed us to understand how each of the actors involved meant and resignified the lived events, which allowed for recursive and enabling reflections, artistic creations and language being the main tools. According to the results, and based on the categorical analysis that were carried out, painful situations were recognized, which marked the present of the participants at first, and afterwards were resignified and transformed by constructions and artistic expressions that made possible the talk about those hostile circumstances they have had experienced and then made possible to identify skills and artistic abilities in each participant, as well as the recognition of these activities as an assertive way of approaching boys and girls with problematic stories that are in school stage.
