Abstract

Video mapping is a technique widely used in public art that transforms the appearance of all kinds of surfaces with projections.

Given that the means used to perform these productions are the same that we can find in a classroom, this article proposes a teaching strategy based on the use of these ICTs to achieve artistic and technological literacy among trainee teachers.

As a result, three artistic interventions developed in three different contexts and based on the methodological foundation of a/r/tography are presented.

Author Biographies

Rocío Lara-Osuna, University of Granada

She is assistant professor at the Melilla Campus of the University of Granada (Spain). She holds a degree in Fine Arts and a PhD in Arts and Education. Her artistic and research production focuses on the use of Projection-Based Augmented Reality for the development of arts-based teaching methods, following the didactic proposals of experimental filmmaker José Val-del-Omar (Granada, 1904 - Madrid, 1982).

Since 2018, she has been developing interactive projection mapping installations, whose peculiarity is that they turn the spectator into the creator of the projected images.

She also started to encourage her students to learn about the artistic possibilities of projected images in teaching, going beyond slide presentations and developing public art interventions. rlo@ugr.es

Rafaèle Genet, University of Granada

She holds a PhD in Art and Education from the University of Granada and a degree in architecture, a master's degree in urban planning, as well as a master's degree in Visual Arts and Education from the University of Granada. She is a lecturer in the area of Didactics of Plastic Expression. Since 2012, she has been the coordinator of the speciality of Drawing, Image and Plastic Arts in the Master's Degree in Compulsory Secondary Education.

Her main line of research focuses on teaching methodologies based on the arts, and in particular on photography and architectural drawing as visual tools that allow her to investigate the city as a social and educational space.

As an artist, his creations focus on visual narratives. Since 1995, he has held several exhibitions and photographic projects in France and Spain, where the starting artistic hypothesis aims to reveal the notion of inhabiting the everyday from an aesthetic point of view. In his non-teaching work, he has been working as a professional architect and urban planner since 2000, on his own account and for studios of some national importance. Since 2005 his professional work has been carried out in Andalusia, where he has carried out numerous urban planning projects. rafagenet@ugr.es

Jessica Castillo-Inostroza, University of the Americas

Visual artist specialized in Printmaking, Professor of Visual Arts and Doctor in Arts and Education, she carries out a work that combines both fields, directing them for the benefit of art education. Currently, she works as a teacher and researcher in higher education.

The interest of her work is focused on the creation in printmaking as well as in the research, innovation and implementation of didactic strategies applicable to different educational sites through the use of Arts Based Methodologies, a/r/tography and Artistic Teaching Methodologies. From these, he emphasizes the study of identity as an iconographic repertoire and theoretical substrate, as well as lateral engraving practices as a teaching-learning tool. jcastilloi@udla.cl

He is Plastic Artist (@enhorabuenaart) and Assistant Professor at the Melilla Campus from the University of Granada (Spain). He has developed a formative, professional and research profile in the contexts of Fine Arts and Art Education. He is specialist in the field of the found object, visual/objectual poetry, sculpture and installation art as a narrative-plastic construction and its implementation in the educational and social context, the subject of his doctoral thesis and subsequent contributions and studies. With regard to artistic research, a fundamental activity that has a direct impact on his teaching quality and his area of knowledge, his work is extensive, with a total of eleven solo exhibitions and hundreds of group exhibitions (national and international). These exhibitions offer contributions with diverse lines of interest, including artistic research and creation, as well as management and curatorship. mpvalero@ugr.es
