WORSHOPS ON ARTISTIC PRACTICES AS LEARNING PLACES: WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

Abstract

The article aims to reflect on the issue of learning, based on artistic practices workshops, held, between 2014 and 2019, with elementary school students from a school for the visually impaired in Rio de Janeiro. The premise was that this was a learning space, but what does this mean? We will follow the tracks of Deleuze, Kastrup and Gallo as a starting point and expand from there. Those theorists advocate non-representational learning. Learning is not restricted to the passage from not knowing to knowing, but rather involves sensitivity, a condition for transforming oneself and the world. So the problem is how to become sensitive? We will proceed by producing a dialogue with the enactive approach to cognition and with a rereading of the concept of Proximal Development Zone in order to propose a Zone of Sensitivity.
